1944

FDR and the Year That Changed History

Jay Winik

1944 was a pivotal year that determined the outcome of World War II and tested President Roosevelt's leadership. In this gripping New York Times Bestseller, Jay Winik captures the epic events of the year with cinematic force. From FDR's re-election to the liberation of Paris to the decision to prioritize winning the war over saving Europe's Jews, Winik paints a complex history with great color and sympathy. This compelling account underscores the need for moral clarity and sheds light on how America could have done more to thwart Nazi aggression.
