Stimson and Marshall did more to shape the international order of the 20th century than anyone. Stimson was the original "Wise Man," a 73-year-old Wall Street lawyer and statesman who was teamed up by FDR in July 1940 with Chief of Staff Marshall (an Army lifer) to prepare America for war. In what the author has described as the greatest feat of management in the history of the world, the two men (whom Ike called the greatest Americans he ever met), built the industrial machine and generated the strategies that ground down the Axis powers.

Presented by Ted Aldrich '83.
