`Urgent, compulsively readable and powerfully resonant' Sinclair McKay�You know Oppenheimer, the man who created the atomic bomb.Now meet the men who detonated it, and the extraordinary weight of their decisions.��Road to Surrender by New York Times bestselling author Evan Thomas is a riveting, immersive account of the agonizing decision to use nuclear weapons against Japan - a crucial turning point in World War II and geopolitical history. �At 9:20 a.m. on the morning of May 30, General Groves receives a message to report to the office of the secretary of war "at once." Stimson is waiting for him. He wants to know: has Groves selected the targets yet?So begins this suspenseful, impeccably researched history that draws on new access to diaries to tell the story of three men who were intimately involved with America's decision to drop the atomic bomb-and Japan's decision to surrender. They are�Henry Stimson, the American Secretary of War, who had overall responsibility for decisions about the atom bomb;�Gen. Carl "Tooey" Spaatz, head of strategic bombing in the Pacific, who supervised the planes that dropped the bombs; and�Japanese Foreign Minister�Shigenori Togo, the only one in Emperor Hirohito's Supreme War Council who believed even before the bombs were dropped that Japan should surrender. Henry Stimson had served in the administrations of five presidents, but as the U.S. nuclear program progressed, he found himself tasked with the unimaginable decision of determining whether to deploy the bomb. The new president, Harry S. Truman, thus far a peripheral figure in the momentous decision, accepted Stimson's recommendation to drop the bomb. Army Air Force Commander Gen. Spaatz ordered the planes to take off. Like Stimson, Spaatz agonized over the command even as he recognized it would end the war. After the bombs were dropped, Foreign Minister Togo was finally able to convince the emperor to surrender. To bring these critical events to vivid life, bestselling author Evan Thomas draws on the diaries of Stimson, Togo and Spaatz, contemplating the immense weight of their historic decision. In�Road to Surrender,�an immersive, surprising, moving account, Thomas lays out the behind-the-scenes thoughts, feelings, motivations, and decision-making of three people who changed history. `This dramatic, you-are-there masterpiece�provides a convincing explanation of one of the great moral questions of 20th century history: was America right to drop the atom bomb on Japan at the end of World War II?�.�This is an indispensable book for those who want to understand the moral issues surrounding the use of great power.'�Walter Isaacson`In this meticulously crafted and vivid account,�Evan Thomas tells the gripping and terrifying story�of the last days of the Second World War in the Pacific. Writing with insight and understanding, he recreates for us those�critical moments when, for better or worse, the decisions, from the dropping of the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki to the Japanese surrender, were made.'�Margaret MacMillan

Does the job!
Color: Silver
Great frother. Love that it's rechargeable. 3 speeds, double frothing ring. This one is way better than my last, battery operated one. A lot of people giving are negative reviews or deductin stars because they think you have to cycle through the speeds to turn it off - they're wrong. You just hold the button for a couple of seconds and it turns off. Highly recommend!

Stand was my favorite part, hated how close off and higher speed is
Color: Silver
Well the first lesson is dont hit the power button to turn off, as it goes to 2nd speed and slings your drink everywhere. Im not happy with the stability of the brother, had better, as free with coffees. Positive is, it has a stand, it does have 3 speeds, just never needed the other two speeds, and if you dont hold power button long enough to turn off, it goes into higher speed.

Good milk frother, drink mixer
Color: Silver
I use this every day to mix my morning protein drink. Love that it's rechargeable. And it doesn't take long to recharge. Be advised that it has 3 speeds, so when you think you're turning it off, it's actually going faster and can splatter your drink. I've learned to mix on 2, then quickly push button to 3 and then off. The speeds aren't that much different, imo, so could have one speed "on', and then 'off'.
