Title: Bitter Revisionist
Product review: In an interview on C-SPAN, John Toland freely admitted he was staunchly anti-FDR, an opinion he attempts to subtle infect the reader with in Infamy. Along with FDR, Toland castigates Marshall, Knox, Stimson, and Stark with withholding vital information and supplies from Kimmel and Short based on third hand knowledge and the most flimsy of evidence. Samuel Eliot Morrison wrote a superb essay in the Atlantic Monthly during the late 1950s blasting the revisionist views towards Pearl Harbor made by Toland's predecessors on the subject Harry Elmer Barnes and Charles A. Beard. For those interested in a more credible account of the events preceding, the event itself, and the aftermath, buy Gordon W. Prange's At Dawn We Slept
