Dwight D. Eisenhower once remarked that "the history of alliances
is a history of failure." This provocative, absorbing work, based
on a study by the General and written by his son, is a history of
one of the great exceptions, the most successful military alliance
the world has ever seen,the Anglo-American military alliance of
World War II. At once a study of the prodigious undertaking that
brought millions of men and women together to defeat the Axis and a
portrait of the great personalities who built and sustained the
alliance, Allies offers vivid glimpses of war at the working level:
on a convoy crossing the Atlantic, with a secret landing party on
the coast of northern Africa, and with armored units in Tunisia.
Eisenhower has crafted a powerful narrative and a most valuable
contribution to the literature of World War II.
