À propos de cet audio

 A New York Times bestseller, The Conquerors reveals how Franklin Roosevelt's and Harry Truman's private struggles with their aides and Winston Churchill and Joseph Stalin affected the unfolding of the Holocaust and the fate of vanquished Nazi Germany.

With monumental fairness and balance, The Conquerors shows how Roosevelt privately refused desperate pleas to speak out directly against the Holocaust, to save Jewish refugees, and to explore the possible bombing of Auschwitz to stop the killing. The book also shows FDR's fierce will to ensure that Germany would never threaten the world again. Near the end of World War II, he abruptly endorsed the secret plan of his friend, Treasury Secretary Henry Morgenthau, to reduce the Germans to a primitive existence—despite Churchill's fear that crushing postwar Germany would let the Soviets conquer the continent. The book finally shows how, after FDR's death, President Truman rebelled against Roosevelt's tough approach and adopted the Marshall Plan and other more conciliatory policies that culminated in today's democratic, united Europe.

As Presidents Roosevelt and Truman led the United States in World War II in Europe, they dealt with the question of what kind of government should be imposed on Nazi Germany to ensure that Germany could never again drag the world into war. The Conquerors tells the story with much intimate detail and color of how FDR and Truman privately struggled in their own minds and with titanic allies like Winston Churchill and Josef Stalin, through summits and secret messages, to answer that question.©2002 Michael Beschloss, All Rights Reserved; (P)2002 Simon & Schuster Inc., All Rights Reserved, AUDIOWORKS Is an Imprint of Simon & Schuster Audio Division, Simon & Schuster Inc.

I purchased this audiobook, thinking giving insight on FDR and Truman on how they ran the war, managing and navigating the many political obstacles both domestic and foreign. Instead focused Henry Morganthau and the treasury, his insight and motivations for his plan on post war plan, the book gave the impression that his plan was the one that was on the for front of policies. Although it was informative, the book should have been titled "Henry Morganthau and the Treasury during ww2". The book had very little if any insight on the conquerors. Which lead me to buying "6 months in 1945" by Michael Dobbs, which in my opinion went into better depth with Presidents thinking and strategy, which I would recommend to listeners if they are looking more insight on FDR and Truman thinking.
