In this episode, Will and Rowdy Yates discuss the book “Stalin’s War,” with a focus on how Stalin was able to shape the war to his advantage, what he was planning all along, and how his agents inside the American and British governments shaped out decisions to his advantage.
I wonder if you chaps have read some of the reviews of Stalin's War from when it came out. I think they would make an interesting podcast all on their own. It's an excellent book, and of course lots of Roosevelt-Churchill worshippers were infuriated by it, though their deprecations were feeble.
Morganthau wasn’t the only one thinking along those lines. I can’t post a photo here but see “Germany Must Perish! is a 104-page book written by Theodore N. Kaufman, which he self-published in 1941 in the United States. The book advocated genocide through the sterilization of all Germans and the territorial dismemberment of Germany, believing that this would achieve world peace.”
It was reviewed in Time magazine. And note the year of publication: 1941.
One need only look at the polices of the FDR administration to know it was full of communists, just like McCarthy said. By the way, very well done.
Yes
Great book, awesome pod guys. Thanks for the shout outs Rowdy!
Thanks!

Will check those out, thanks!
This was a very enjoyable conversation.

I’m surprised y’all didn’t mention operation keelhaul or did the book not cover it?
Yeah there is definitely that as part of it
