RE ROOSEVELT TRUMAN

Been reading Beschloss' Conquerors. Seems rather well selected, but what an enormously editted narrative it had to be; in that sense, it seems less a work of history than of historical journalism, with highly selective and important quotes interspersed.

What a sad commentary is painted, not just the Morgenthau White saga (also reading The Haunted Wood),
but the whole administrative set up, and approach.
