George Marshall: Defender of the Republic, David Roll
“I read David Roll’s masterful (and also massive) biography, George Marshall: Defender of the Republic, this summer, and it was the perfect antidote to what was going on in the news. Marshall was a master at taming his own emotions and ambitions in service of the greater good—a true servant leader. That’s what enabled him to become the principal architect of the postwar world, and led one commentator to say—with justification—that his ‘ability and character brook only one comparison in the history of this nation—George Washington.’”
