Eisenhower's General — Charles Parker

Eisenhower's General is the story of a shy, conscripted medical officer who became a reluctant hero while trapped on the Bataan Peninsula after the Japanese invasion. He was so distraught by the ineptitude of the professional military that he gave up his noncombatant status to take command of an infantry regiment. Returning from Bataan, the young medical intern finds himself caught between the incongruent influences of General Eisenhower, who is trying to prepare him for a military career, and Monti Rosenfeld, his attorney, who reviews his patent designs and decides he can become wealthy as a pharmacy product designer. She also decides he would make an excellent companion for a long dirty weekend at a resort.
