Reviews
"In a time when our politics has become more polarized than ever, how refreshing to revisit an era when a Democratic president forged a pact with leading Republicans to defend democracy in a moment of extreme peril. With lucid writing and deep archival research, Peter Shinkle brilliantly reconstructs what he convincingly argues may have been the greatest bipartisan alliance in our nation's history." -- Michael Isikoff, coauthor of Russian Roulette "Once upon a time, when it really mattered, America was led by statesmen who could rise above partisanship. Peter Shinkle has given us a very readable, at times moving account of two men who led America--and the free world--through its darkest hour." --Evan Thomas, author of Ike's Bluff and co-author of The Wise Men "An elegant and timely book that showcases a remarkable collaboration...[Shinkle] illuminates a memorable example of how history can offer lessons for today." --Susan Eisenhower, author of How Ike Led "Shinkle sheds light on a critical time in history when both parties united behind their president to fight the evil forces of Hitler's fascism. My hope as an American first, and Republican second, is that we will come together anew to solve the significant problems facing our country and the world." --William Webster, former federal judge, former director of the CIA and the FBI "Franklin Roosevelt valued Henry Stimson as a competent administrator and straight-talking adviser, but also as a symbol of national unity during wartime...In this meticulously researched and trenchantly argued book, Shinkle sheds fresh light on an impactful partnership." --Michael Birkner, professor of history at Gettysburg College, author of The Worlds of James Buchanan and Thaddeus Stevens "Stuffed with detail yet fluidly written, this is an expert study of wartime politics and the value of bipartisanship." -- Publishers Weekly, "In a time when our politics has become more polarized than ever, how refreshing to revisit an era when a Democratic president forged a pact with leading Republicans to defend democracy in a moment of extreme peril.

Peter Shinkle has given us a very readable, at times moving account of two men who led America--and the free world--through its darkest hour." --Evan Thomas, co-author of The Wise Men "Franklin Roosevelt valued Henry Stimson as a competent administrator and straight-talking adviser, but also as a symbol of national unity during wartime. Whether they agreed on a given issue or not, FDR could count on Stimson to have his back. In this meticulously researched and trenchantly argued book, Shinkle sheds fresh light on an impactful partnership." --Michael Birkner, Professor of History at Gettysburg College, author of The Worlds of James Buchanan and Thaddeus Stevens Praise for Ike's Mystery Man: "This astonishing American story transcends politics. It is about how power was wielded in Washington during the 1950s, but also about the eternal conflict between public life and private emotion. Poignant diary entries enrich the narrative of a presidential counselor who spent his life dealing with that conflict." --Stephen Kinzer, author of The Brothers "A honeyed, scintillating and ultimately sad tale of gay love at the highest reaches of the Eisenhower White House...Shinkle's stunning book is well-documented with previously undisclosed diaries and letters. Ike's Mystery Man is a formidable achievement, casting new light on America in the 1950s." --Kai Bird, Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer "An important, deeply researched contribution to the history of one of the sorrier episodes in American history...This is a book that deserves, and is sure to get, a wide audience." --Michael Isikoff, co-author of Russian Roulette
Synopsis
The untold story of the most crucial bipartisan alliance in United States history. As Adolf Hitler's Nazi armies threatened Europe, Democratic President Franklin D. Roosevelt urged a divided America to mobilize to defend democracy and freedom. Many Republicans accused FDR of leading the nation needlessly into war and demanded that America remain neutral. On June 20, 1940, FDR shocked the country by announcing that two prominent Republicans would take posts in his cabinet. Henry Stimson, former President Herbert Hoover's secretary of state, became secretary of war, and Frank Knox, the Republican vice-presidential candidate in 1936, became secretary of the navy. Roosevelt intended the appointments to build national unity. But building a coalition across party lines was a risky move that could have backfired politically. It also placed a bipartisan relationship at the center of America's confrontation with global fascism. FDR's Republican allies went on to play critical roles in leading the war effort, and many bills passed Congress during the war years with strong backing from both parties. Following Roosevelt's death, Stimson continued to champion bipartisanship under President Truman in the closing chapter of the war. This alliance stands as a historic example of united leadership in a nation scarred by political division. Uniting America is the first book to paint a full portrait of this extraordinary collaboration, tracing it back to its origins in 1933. Author Peter Shinkle reveals the true extent of bipartisanship during the war, including previously undisclosed information about Stimson's work with 1940 Republican presidential nominee Wendell Willkie and other Republicans who supported FDR. This fascinating and deeply researched book is a must-read for anyone who believes America must once again unite to defend democracy at home and abroad., Peter Shinkle's Uniting America reveals the untold story of the most crucial bipartisan alliance in United States history...
