Book Review

Road to Surrender: Three Men and the Countdown to the End of World War II, Evan Thomas.
Summarizes the leadup and aftermath of the decisions to drop the atomic bombs, and follows Stimson (US Secretary of War), Spaatz (US Strategic Air Forces Commander), and Togo (Japanese Foreign Minister) and how they lead to Japan's surrender, and how the militarists in Japan nearly nixed the surrender in favor of götterdämmerung. Good book by a good author.
