American Warlords:How Roosevelt's High Command Led America to Victory in World War II
Book Summary

Putting aside any personal rivalries and ambitions, Secretary of War Henry Stimson, General George C. Marshall and Admiral Ernest J. King had to rise to the challenge of working together towards defeating the Axis powers.
