  Book Description
  Publication Date: April 18, 2011
  This book explores the American use of atomic bombs and
the role these weapons played in the defeat of the Japanese Empire in World War II. It focuses on President Harry S.
Truman's decision-making regarding this most controversial of all his decisions. The book relies on notable archival
research and the best and most recent scholarship on the subject to fashion an incisive overview that is fair and
forceful in its judgments. This study addresses a subject that has been much debated among historians and it confronts
head-on the highly disputed claim that the Truman administration practised 'atomic diplomacy'. The book goes beyond its
central historical analysis to ask whether it was morally right for the United States to use these terrible weapons
against Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It also provides a balanced evaluation of the relationship between atomic weapons and
the origins of the Cold War.
  
  Reviews
  "Father Miscamble is a history professor at the University of Notre Dame and thus is at home with the theological
and moral aspects surrounding the decision to unleash the world's first atomic bombs. He is also familiar with the
political and military exigencies of the decision. He takes the reader carefully through the genesis of the
bomb-building Manhattan Project, as planned by Churchill and Franklin Roosevelt originally for the bomb's use against
Nazi Germany, and through the calculations of the key Allied decision makers, including Gen. George C. Marshall, the
U.S. Army chief of staff, and Adm. William Leahy, the head of the Joint Chiefs." -Wall Street
Journal
  
  "This book, by the priest and cold war historian Wilson D. Miscamble, is a volume in
the Cambridge Essential Histories series, which is (according to its statement of purpose) 'devoted to introducing
critical events, periods or individuals in history ... through thesis-driven, concise volumes.' Concise The Most
Controversial Decision certainly is: it packs into its 150 pages discussions that other scholars have spent careers
grappling with." -Barry Gewen, The New Republic
  
  "In writing this
book, Father Miscamble has done us a great service." -The Rev. Michael P. Orsi, The
Washington Times
  
  "Notre Dame profe ssor Wilson Miscamble has previously written about the
blindly unforeseen handoff of the American government from Roosevelt to Truman on April 12, 1945, during the endgame of
World War II. He now brings his wise and wide-ranging knowledge of the complicated decisions left for the American
president at that time to one specific major decision: whether to drop the atomic bomb on Japan." - Jay Pasachoff, The Key Reporter
  
  "Recommended."
