Publisher's Summary
What if Stalin had signed with the West in 1939? What if the Allies had been defeated on D-Day? And what if Hitler had won the war?
From the Munich crisis to the dropping of the first atom bomb, and from Hitler's declaration of war on the United States to the D-Day landings - historians suggest "what would have been" if key events in the war had gone differently. Written by an exceptional team of historians as if these world-changing events had really happened, realistic scenarios based on the true capabilities and circumstances of the opposing forces are projected with chilling implications. What if the Nazis had taken London? The alternate outcomes are fascinating and fully realized. If the Allies Had Fallen is a spirited and terrifying alternate history, and a telling insight into the dramatic possibilities of World War II.
Contributors include Thomas M. Barker, Harold C. Deutsch, Walter S. Dunn, Robert M. Love, D. Clayton James, Bernard C. Nalty, Richard J. Overy, Paul Schratz, Dennis E. Showalter, Gerhard L. Weinberg, Anne Wells, and Herman S. Wolk.

Interesting but hard to follow at times
The book makes for some very interesting alternative outcomes to WW2 and overall was quite interesting. It is clearly an academic piece of work and is written in that style. Because of that, it was, at times, a little hard to follow and would probably be better as a hardcopy read instead of an audiobook. It delves into some of the lesser-known campaigns of the war and so I liked it for that reason but I also found myself zoning out at other times without a clue about the campaign they were referring to. Would I buy it again? Maybe...maybe not.

Some Big Names on the Cover
Otherwise it would have been much more difficult to lend credence to some of these theories, not that any were super far fetched, just that a person had to be looking hard to find a loophole in some cases. Overall quite interesting, non descript performance for a somewhat nondescript book that any WW2 enthusiast would enjoy, I’m just not sure how much further it would reach.
