520 A major new history of the eight days in February 1945
when FDR, Churchill, and Stalin decided the fate of the
world. Harvard historian Serhii Plokhy goes against
conventional wisdom--cemented during the Cold War--and
argues that an ailing Roosevelt did better than we think.
Much has been made of FDR's handling of the Depression;
here we see him as wartime chief.
