The one thing I want to comment on is the silly assertion that Germany didn’t want war in 1939. It’s a matter of record, has been for decades now, that the war was started via a deliberate provocation on the German’s part, so that they could invade Poland. It’s also a matter of record that Hitler was hoping to provoke a war with Britain and France over Czechoslovakia in 1938. He reportedly was outraged when Chamberlain made him an offer he couldn’t refuse, and he had to postpone things for a year. Buchanan is an idiot, and everyone has known this for years, but this latest book makes him into such an ass that it’s hard to imagine how anyone could take him seriously.
