Unfortunately, his approach of recapping everything leading
up to the actual decision, made me feel as though I was just reading a rehash
of things I’d read in any number of books before. So I gave up on it after two
chapters. So I've hit critical mass on World.War 2 for awhile.

Fateful Choices - Ian Kershaw
The stated purpose of the book was to look at 10 critical
decisions between the start of 1940 and the end of 1941, and show all the
twists and turns, as well as the thought processes, that ultimately produce the
choice made. Kershaw’s reasoning seemed to be that many of these are often
treated as obvious, as though there were no other choice, or as without any
logic. Kershaw wanted to show how neither of those things would be true.
