WARREN F. KIMBALL, is the author of Forged in War: Roosevelt, Churchill, and the Second World War (1997), The Juggler: Franklin Roosevelt as Wartime Statesman (1991), and books on the Morgenthau Plan for Germany and the origins of Lend-Lease. He edited Churchill & Roosevelt: The Complete Correspondence (3 vols.,1984). His over 50 essays on Churchill, Roosevelt the era of the Second World War have popped up like dandelions in the spring, most recently in a published collection of co-edited essays, FDR's World: War, Peace, and Legacies (2008). He chaired and served on the State Department Historical Advisory Committee, 1990-2003, and chaired the Secretary of State’s Review Panel on the Historical Office Issues in 2008-09.

While he still tries to unwrap the true "riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma" (FDR), and still sifts the evidence as to whether or not Sir Winston ever really "smoked" that cigar, he just published The United States Tennis Association: Raising the Game (2017), an institutional history of the USTA, of which he is The Historian. He is Robert Treat Professor of History (emeritus) from Rutgers University – where he taught for 32 years, was Pitt Professor at Cambridge University, 1987-88, Visiting Distinguished Professor at both The Citadel, 2002-04 and Wofford College, 2019. He held two fellowships at Corpus Christi College and was a Churchill Archive Fellow, both at Cambridge. He retired from the U.S. Navy in 1988 as a Captain, with extensive service in the Naval Reserve Intelligence Program. He lives on Seabrook Island, just south of Charleston, South Carolina, and in West Stockbridge, Massachusetts.

sneaky and beautiful sorce material to add to historical collections

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 2, 2014

Verified Purchase

This is exactly the real deal, coupled with the book of correspondence between churchill, Roosevelt ,stalin,Truman, plus the obvious deception against stalin ,operation paper clip as an example,involving the use and development of nuclear missiles,obviously to be used against Stalin's plains for increasing his sphere of influence,to block W.W.3,,notice the military bases planned by British,American military forces ,but not soviets,they were obviously. Aware of the problem with the Soviets in the future in part because of the venona code , all five .this with the Oppenheimer trial, shows what the big boys were working against this impossible new world order,to bad Roosevelt died ,and Churchill was put to grass. Reading between the lines, going with the official records ,some declassified,the real Roosevelt was sneaky, but fortunately on the side of the angels,knowing what Lincoln's comment of the old trick of telling the truth,nothing but the truth, but leaving out the whole truth, no wonder Stalin's remark they had berlin but, not the rocket scientists, this shows why Roosevelt,along with Lincoln ,Johnson on civil rights were the greatest presidents ever.Ronald Reagan not even close.remember Roosevelt's speech ,where he says (paraphrasing) that he knows stalin very well,as he is reading the venona codes, obviously he is a very adept strategist. In a few weeks are army's will be in a position to deal with stalin than has been to our advantage previously,he told churchill, but politely appearing to work with stalin outwardly. While not always in agreement with the editors opinions, it(what was declassified at the time) is all here, in the matter of j.r. Oppenheimer unedited book,for background on plans starting with the Roosevelt administration, it gives contradictory public policy, with presidential policy behind the scenes. Wonder full for the historian to cross reference with W.W.2 and the COLD WAR ,beautiful
