Eisenhower for Our Time provides an introduction to the Eisenhower presidency, extracting lessons for today''s world. Steven Wagner proposes that the need to maintain balance defines Eisenhower''s presidency. Wagner examines a series of defining moments that were among Eisenhower''s greatest challenges, some of which resulted in his greatest accomplishments: the decision to run for president, his political philosophy of the "Middle Way," the creation of a national security policy, the French Indochina War, Senator Joseph McCarthy, the Little Rock Desegregation Crisis, the Race for Space, and the famous Farewell Address. Wagner looks at Eisenhower''s executive ability, leadership, decision making, and willingness to compromise, as well as the qualities of duty, integrity, and good character. The moments detailed in Eisenhower for Our Time show Eisenhower as a president intimately engaged in the decisions that defined America in his time and that apply to ours today. The President''s actions place him among the most successful presidents and provide many lessons to guide us in our time and in the future.
