Sommario/riassunto: | This account of America's entry into World War II argues that Franklin D.Roosevelt was not the vacillating and disorganized leader he is often portrayed as, but a cautious, rational man. It shows how Roosevelt, Churchill and others struggled to shape American policy before Pearl Harbour. |
