"The Story of General Pershing" by Everett T. Tomlinson, is a biography that tells the story of John Joseph Pershing, a major figure in American military history, especially for his leadership in World War I. Starting with Pershing's arrival in France on June 13, 1917, the book paints a scene of anticipation, capturing the historical weight of the moment as U.S. soldiers were sent to fight in Europe for the first time. Tomlinson's writing emphasizes Pershing's character and how his early life shaped him into a strong leader who reluctantly climbed the military ladder; this shows his strength and humbleness. The author underlines how Pershing stood for American values and the fight for freedom, showcasing his importance beyond just battles and military strategies.
