"General Daniel "Chappie" James, Jr., USAF, fought in three American wars and became the first African American to attain the rank of four star general. He was a talented military leader, an excellent orator and an advocate for equal rights. James was once one of the most powerful men in the world, and today he is often classed with such American generals as Patton, MacArthur and Pershing.".

From his childhood through his service in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam, the book traces his personal and career development, the influences upon him, and his climb through the military ranks. Photographs and detailed bibliographical information are provided."--BOOK JACKET.
