"Almighty God,Our sons, pride of our nation, this day have set upon
a mighty endeavor." It was with these words that President Franklin
D. Roosevelt addressed the troops that were to mount the final
assault on Nazi-dominated Europe on D-day, June 6, 1944. The Mighty
Endeavor is a sweeping history of American action in the European
theatre in World War II, covering the entire scope of America's
effort "to set free from Nazi tyranny a suffering humanity."From
the first landings at Casablanca straight through to the crossing
of the Elbe River and V-E Day, this book tells the gripping stories
of all the battles in which Americans took part. At its core are
accounts of such dramatic episodes as Kasserine Pass, Salerno and
Anzio, D-day, the liberation of Paris, the Battle of the Bulge, and
the crossing of the Rhine. MacDonald's sources include official
U.S. Army records and interviews with soldiers from the lowest
ranks to Top-level officers such as Generals Eisenhower and
Bradley. Since its initial publication in 1969, The Mighty Endeavor
has retained its reputation as the best one-volume history of the
American war in Europe, a true classic of its kind.
