Why read it?

1 author picked 1944 as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

It is the best work that integrates three essential themes of the history of World War II.

In each chapter, I got a strong sense of the military and diplomatic contexts of this crucial year with moving segues into the tragic saga of the destruction of European Jewry amid the Holocaust while spending important time on the physical and mental status of an aging FDR. It is a troubling but important study by an eminent historian.
