Publisher's Summary
Douglas MacArthur is best remembered for his adaptability, a quality which hoisted him to his greatest accomplishments. Adaptability now reigns as the most indispensable trait for high military leadership in this era of technological leaps, which guarantee radical changes in the nature of war during the span of an ordinary career.
No American figure better exemplifies this trait than the man who was commissioned before the Wright Brothers' first flight but became a keen exponent of an entirely new dimension in warfare. MacArthur was also in charge of the U.S. occupation of Japan, the most successful occupation in history.

Critic Reviews
"Palgrave's Great Generals Series is an important and inspiring contribution to our understanding of modern-day warfare." (General Wesley K. Clark)
"A classic example of good things in small packages, this addition to the Great Generals Series owes much to its author, an expert on the Pacific War." ( Booklist)
