Review:
About 85% of this book is World War II history. I did learn one thing I didn't previously know about WWII: Stalin was 5'4". I was not aware of this conspiracy and the authors worked hard to piece together what they could, but there just isn't much there. There is a lot of disputed information, a fair amount of reasonable speculation, but that is about it. As for the conspiracy itself, it may or may not have happened (probably did), but it clearly didn't work. So, that is mostly what you know walking in the door and walking out, there is not a lot more. I know a little more about some obscure figures in Nazi government and a little bit more about the Russian KGB (which, it appears, actively worked to protect everyone involved just like you would hope). Beyond that it is a refresher on America's involvement in WWII from Pearl Harbor to FDR's death. It felt like there was a single paper that got blown up to a book.
