This 56-page (plus color cover) book includes drawings with text and quotations portraying a biographical summary of George Catlett Marshall's (1880-1959) entire life. The drawings--suitable for coloring and rendered from photographs or based on actual events--concentrate on World War II and the postwar years and the Marshall Plan. In addition to captions explaining the pictured events of General Marshall's life, there are quotations by or about Marshall. A one-page summary introduces the reader to George C. Marshall, and a detailed chronology of his life is provided. The book includes a world map and a map of the Marshall Plan countries.

"There are few men whose qualities of mind and character have impressed me so deeply as those of General Marshall," wrote Prime Minister Winston S. Churchill. "He is a great American, but he is far more than that. . . . He has always fought victoriously against defeatism, discouragement and disillusion. Succeeding generations must not be allowed to forget his achievements and his example."
