Countdown 1945: The Extraordinary Story of the Atomic Bomb and the 116 Days That Changed the World by Chris Wallace

3.0

It was an interesting and informative book but I'm giving it three stars because it seems to have an ulterior motive of justifying the atomic bombings by purporting the myth of an invasion and that the bombs ended the war. The us was not seriously planning an invasion when we could just blockade Japan. USSR's declaration of war caused Japan to surrender not the bombs. US had already leveled many cities, why would the fascist leadership care about two more.
