Articoli correlati a The Odd Couple: Blamey and Macarthur at War
An examination of the two leading generals of the Allied forces in the Pacific during World War II, American MacArthur and Australian Blamey, focusing on their uses of personal self-promotion. Author Gallaway, a journalist, demonstrates that MacArthur was a master at using the press, constantly manufacturing releases to cast himself in a favorable light, and became a world-heralded hero, where as Blamey, also a brilliant tactician with even more experience than MacArthur but without MacArthur's flair for self-promotion, was removed as Commander-In-Chief in December of 1945 to eventually die, six years later, a lonely man.
