From May to September 1939 Japan and the Soviet Union fought a fierce; large-scale undeclared war on the Mongolian plains that ended with a decisive Soviet victory with two important results: Japan reoriented its strategic emphasis towards the south; leading to war with the United States; Britain; and the Netherlands; and Russia freed itself from the fear of fighting on two fronts; thus vitally affecting the course of the war with Germany.

Very interesting/inventive bookBy ZoobyI really enjoyed this book; especially all the letters Schreiner put in it. While he does "invent" some conversations; he explains why he does this and how in the beginning. Worth getting used or checking out from the library if you are unsure. Mary Todd Lincoln's letters are poetry and her pain is evident. Robert Todd Lincoln's very possible money-grubbing attitude and actual unconcern for his mother is apparent with how this story is told.
