Written by: David McCullough
Having earlier read McCullough’s “John Adams” and both enjoyed it and learned a lot about the time period in which Adams lived, I was looking forward to this book both from a biography and historical knowledge perspective around the end of World War II and U.S. history. It was a big letdown. Very superficial descriptions of individuals and events, and few insights or interesting facts and theories about events of the time. McCullough seems to have just called this one in. Bummer.
