Ryan's Reviews > Stalin's War: A New History of World War II

An exceptional book about WW2. Essentially: Stalin was truly evil, and WW2 was more about Stalin than Hitler (!!!), which is contrary to mainstream history. Stalin, unlike Hitler, had massively tentacles in Western governments, tricking us into propping up his evil regime through Lend-Lease, to the detriment of the US, UK, and the rest of the world. On top of Stalin (and Morgenthau) being evil, and FDR being basically spineless and pursuing "unconditional surrender" at the cost of many allied lives and extending the war, the mass murder of Germans, etc., there were was the essential horror done to Poland, Ukraine, Hungary, and Yugoslavians by Stalin as well.
