Endgame William J Pellas

What really happened at the end of World War II? Did the United States of America and President Truman truly have little or no choice but to drop two atomic bombs on Japan? In recent years the chorus of criticism of Truman's decision has become a crescendo. Was Truman wrong and are today's critics right? ENDGAME answers that question. Due consideration is given to the proposed alternatives to the use of the new superbomb. Those alternatives were: invasion, a negotiated peace with Japan, a non-combat demonstration of the atomic bomb, and continued blockade and bombardment.
