Description
Dwight Eisenhower might have been the last true moderate in American politics. His terms came on the heels of wars and bridged into the cultural movements and strife of the ‘60s. How much more likely was another war if we’d had a different president? Chuck talks with William Hitchcock, professor at University of Virginia, author of “The Age of Eisenhower: America and the World in the 1950s” and the co-host of the podcast, “Democracy in Danger.”
