About this audiobook

Susan Butler's brilliantly readable book firmly places FDR where he belongs, as the American president engaged most directly in diplomacy and strategy, who not only had an ambitious plan for the postwar world, but had the strength, ambition and personal charm to overcome Churchill's reluctance and Stalin's suspicion to bring about what was, in effect, an American peace, and to avoid the disastrous consequences that followed the botched peace of Versailles in 1919. It is at once a long overdue tribute to FDR and his vision, and a serious work of history that reads like a novel. I would rank it next to Margaret MacMillan's Paris 1919, and casts new light on the character and war aims of Stalin, Churchill and FDR himself. Brava!

    There was no partnership between FDR and Stalin. FDR chased Stalin like a high school boy chasing pretty young co ed. FDR was the one who had to fly ridiculous distances. FDR was the one that gave Stalin every thing he could to fight the war against Germany. Stalin and Hitler were love buddies first. FDR was thrilled to see those two socialists break up. FDR was if not a latent commie he suffered the biggest anti capitalist mentality of any president before or since. FDR sacrificed several hundred thousand American soldiers lives so Stalin could take over half the world. FDR gave him Manchuria, China, Korea, and he would have given half of Japan had he not died while in the midst of the girl friends he banged at one time or another; while Eleanor was off someplace else promoting communism. These two were anti capitalists and did what they could to destroy capitalism. Of course the left always states the opposite of the truth. FDR was a fluffer for Stalin, FDR hated capitalism. The leftist historians re write the truth as FDR and Stalin were partners, FDR saved Capitalism. Butler's book does its best to make FDR an honorable peace loving America saving man when in fact he was a socialist commie saver and he created the China problem we have today.
