Truman:
1) wife kept her bitch-ass mother-in-law around way too long
2) the Missouri political machine put him in office
3) Dem party picked him as VP for FDR because they knew FDR would croak and didn’t like the liberal VP
4) nuked Japan and ended WWII
5) started the Cold War
6) defended Korea from Korea (and the Chinese commies)
7) shit canned MacArthur who was advocating turning all of China into glass (probably his best move)
Not sure how any of that relates to Petersen -

McCullough is fine. The English guy who wrote Stalin’s War was tough.YellowSnow said:
Great book. Starts to get a little TL;DR for @CFetters_Nacho_Lover attention span though.pawz said:@YellowSnow
Speaking of Truman, have you read Truman by David McCullough? Seminal door-stop read.
That is all.
Adding Truman to my list. Just finished Coldest Winter and have a newfound appreciation for Truman as president and my hatred of MacArthur has only increased. -
Antony Beevor (spelling?) was the author of Stalingrad and Berlin. Great books but exhaustive.CFetters_Nacho_Lover said:

MacArthur was massively overrated. Nimitz was/is the man -
MacArthur was in it for the clicks
