Richard Striner: IKE IN LOVE AND WAR (With Louis Galambos)

Join The Ivy Bookshop on the back patio for an event with Richard Striner, author of the new biography of Eisenhower, Ike in Love and War: How Dwight D. Eisenhower Sacrificed Himself to Keep the Peace! Louis Galambos, editor of The Papers of Dwight D. Eisenhower, will join Striner in conversation.

Ike in Love and War shows the hidden sacrifices that made Eisenhower remarkable. It probes the mission that was driving him: the quest to reconcile his skill as a fighter with his mother’s pacifism, which led him to become the greatest peacekeeper of his age. More than other biographies, this one explores the man’s emotions.

This event will take place at The Ivy Bookshop, located at 5928 Falls Road on September 21, at 6 pm. It is free and open to the public.
