Orlando Ward received his first assignment out of West Point in 1914 as a lieutenant in command of U.S. Cavalry troops patrolling the Mexican border. During an illustrious forty-year career he pursued Pancho Villa; led American combat troops in two World Wars; and commanded occupation forces in an uneasy peace on the Korean Peninsula. Gugeler's insights reveal General Ward both as a major American military figure and a man anchored by an unshakeable core of moral strength. Through eyewitness accounts; diary entries and family history; Gugeler tells the story of a man ruled by an unerring sense of duty--to his loved ones; his men and his country.

I like the worldview and the details this book gives. Some complain about the lack of color photos; but I am more interested in the text. My kids liked this better than Notgrass.
