Riassunto

The Forrestal Diaries is a book written by Walter Millis that provides an in-depth look into the life and career of James Forrestal, the first United States Secretary of Defense. The book is a collection of Forrestal's personal diaries, which were kept from 1944 until his death in 1949. Forrestal was a key figure in American politics during the mid-20th century, and his diaries offer a unique perspective on the events that shaped the country during this time. The diaries cover a wide range of topics, including Forrestal's experiences during World War II, his relationships with other political figures, and his struggles with mental illness.The book is divided into several sections, each of which covers a different period in Forrestal's life. The diaries are presented in their original form, with Millis providing context and commentary to help readers understand the historical significance of the events described.Overall, The Forrestal Diaries is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in American history or the life of James Forrestal. The book provides a rare glimpse into the mind of one of the most influential figures of the 20th century, and sheds light on the complex political and personal issues that Forrestal faced during his time in office.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
