Book Overview
Known as the GI?s general? and Lightning Joe,? General J. Lawton Collins played no less than a global part in the Allied victory of World War II. Here, for the first time, is the story of a virtually forgotten hero?a man who earned the admiration of the grunts with whom he shared foxholes and the respect of the highest-ranking American officers. Collins was a true leader of men with his iron-clad devotion to duty, his genuine concern for those under his command, and his seemingly unending drive to defend his nation against all enemies?no matter where the fight took him?
