Synopsis "In the Time of the Americans: Fdr, Truman, Eisenhower, Marshall, Macarthur-The Generation That Changed America 's Role in the World"

Coming of age during World War I and attaining their finest hour in World War II and the Cold War, these men -- FDR, Truman, Eisenhower, Marshall, MacArthur -- transformed America from an isolated frontier nation into a global superpower. As he tells their stories, Fromkin, author of A Peace to End All Peace, shows how this generation not only made America great but largely succeeded in making it a force for good.
