"So I read maybe six or seven of the ten choices, for my World War II pro-seminar. I can say that for each decision/chapter, it takes about two pages to cover one month in the decision-making process. SUPER-DETAILED. Read only if you are patient. But the ideas are good, and I came away knowing every single freaking cabinet member in Japan, the Soviet Union, the United States, and Great Britain during World War II. Informative, I guess I'm saying."
"This book covers ten major decisions that the principle actors in World War II made in 1940 and 1941. The author explains the background of these decisions, why the decisions were made, and their outcome. The book is well-researched and provides a lot of historical information on World War II. I also found the author's analysis of why certain decisions were made to be informative. The author deals with many of the "mysterious" decisions of World War II, and explains why they were considered the best alternative at the time."
