“Gripping… Gladwell is a wonderful storyteller… in [his] deft hands, the Air Force generals of World War II come back to life… I enjoyed this short book thoroughly, and would have been happy if it had been twice as long.”―Thomas E. Ricks, New York Times Book Review “A thought-provoking, accessible account of how people respond to difficult choices in difficult times... Gladwell’s easy conversational style works well… and his admiration for the Bomber Mafia shines through. His portraits of individuals are compelling."―Diana Preston, Washington Post “Truly compelling… written in New York Times bestseller Malcolm Gladwell's characteristic approachable, story-telling style.”―Zibby Owens, Good Morning America
