It Is also a book about a man. MacArthur. But because Mr. Mersey has glimpsed the eerie destiny that pstterna events and make* heroes, this If ft book about every American, about you. about the things you have done and felt that led to Bataan. It does, of course tell the whole story Os MatArthur's life, In which, almost from Its very beginning, every signpost seemed to point to Bataan. It “proposes *o understate the General It lays some of the myths to rest.” bnt It “does not react too far in skepticism." it Justly stresses MacArthur's talents, "especially his extradlonary leadership In battle, and his clear, broad vision, for he hits been a very right man." but “even understatement will at times look like highest praise." “This (book also acquaints you with some of Genera! Mao Arthur's men. and with some of the civilians who were caught In the whirl of America’s first battle. They are average people; they are a cross-sec-tion; they are you. You ought to get to know them, for they are like you and your sons and your sisters and your friends. They have reacted, as you will when your crisis comes.splendidly and worthily, with no more mistakes than necessary " Mr. Mersey hss had extraordinary aource* of information; yet his book would never have become what It Is without his own striking gift for significant essentials. and for telling a story In tense, terse, hard and deeply moving words.
