Book tip:
I just finished reading William Manchester’s American Caesar, a biography of Douglas MacArthur. If you have several thousand hours to
kill, I enthusiastically recommend that you tackle this book. Apparently Manchester served under MacArthur
(WAY under; he was a grunt). This book
confirms me in my view that MacArthur was our greatest general- perhaps the
GOAT – but not a very good politician.
Also: a very peculiar person.
Revered in Japan and the Philippines, his reputation can only be
described as iffy here in his home country, which is too bad. Read this book and learn why.
