The Soul of an American President: The Untold Story of Dwight D. Eisenhower’s Faith is a well-researched, thorough book written by Alan Sears and Craig Osten (with Ryan Cole). There are many books written about Eisenhower, but few cover his faith in depth. The Soul of an American President shows the major role that Eisenhower’s faith played in his presidency.
Faith affects so many factors; it influences the decisions a person makes. Eisenhower’s faith is a testament to his character. Before reading this book, I knew various things about Eisenhower’s life and career, but very little about his personal convictions. I loved learning more about Eisenhower’s faith and life. I even ended up giving this book to someone as a gift! The Soul of an American President makes me want to read more books about Eisenhower.
