Commanding generals and chiefs of staff, 1775-2018: portraits & biographical sketches of the United States Army's senior officer
In: CMH Pub 70-14
Abstract
This volume provides short biographical sketches of the commanding generals and chiefs of staff who have led the United States Army. Their rise through the levels of leadership to the pinnacle of their profession reveals both striking parallels and equally fascinating contrasts. While their responsibilities have evolved over the years, the essential elements of leadership remain unchanged. The format of this volume combines biographical information along with the officially designated portraits and photographs of the commanding generals and chiefs of staff. It also includes brief accounts of the artists selected to paint the official portraits and photographers. As an aspect of the Army art program, these portraits add an interesting and revealing dimension to the biographer's words.--Provided by publisher
