Ike was one of the great Americans of all time. He was widely admired and enormously respected by a public that really did not know him very well. Few Americans could tell you much about Ike’s parents, his brothers, his religious faith, his relationship to his wife and his children. Did you know that he was a superb athlete who once tackled Jim Thorpe? Or that he was one of the most religious presidents in the history of the USA?

 

This multimedia presentation will serve as a fascinating biography illuminating the private life of one of the most admired Americans of all time.
