Review
"Stewart tells this only too familiar story as if it had never been told before . . . in spite of ourselves, we sit breathless to the end. A splendid and stirring book." (The New Yorker )
Ingram
Back in print--the definitive account of 15 hours that changed the course of world history. This narrativently recreates how itoo familiar story . . . with objectivity . . . (and) explosive detail. . . . (A) stirring book."--The New Yorker.
