I’m going to go out on a limb that my favorite is the next one. I don’t have any idea what it’s about, but I am anxiously awaiting its publication.

Very nice of you to say. The research journey for Splendid and the Vile was utterly engaging. Got to spend time at the Churchill Archives Center at Cambridge University and the National Archives of the UK in Kew. Amazing.

Dear @exlarson I’ve read them all. And thought Devil was my favorite until now. Thunderstruck is a treasure beyond measure. Masterful. Thank you

Concur. I think future historians will look back at this period with wonder--and not the good kind.

Imagine if in 1943 FDR had decided that the US would stop helping Britain and instead would side with the Third Reich. That's a bit like what President Trump is now doing by cozying up to Russia as it tries to destroy Ukraine. Utterly shameful. A humiliating moment for the US.

Thank you for hiring Mr. Scott Brick for the narration of your work. I can finally listen to your books. He brings life and warmth to the story. My friend saw you at the dentist. 🦷 🤣
