Professor Jackson takes a step back to review themes from episodes 187 through 189 (War in Europe and America’s Response), specifically the slow turn from isolationism to aid via Lend-Lease, and eventually to preparing for war. 
Prof. Jackson’s guests are <a href="https://www.lindseycormack.com/">Professor Lindsey Cormack</a>, an associate professor of political science at Stevens Institute of Technology, and <a href="https://lynneolson.com/">historian Lynne Olson</a>, author of several books on WW2 including <a href="https://amzn.to/46HCVJH">Citizens of London</a> which chronicles the pivotal role played by three Americans who influenced the decisions of President Franklin Roosevelt and Prime Minister Winston Churchill—Edward R. Murrow, Averell Harriman, and John Gilbert Winant. Olson emphasizes how these individuals navigated the complexities of diplomacy and public opinion, often against a backdrop of American isolationism and British skepticism, ultimately building a strong relationship that was essential for the war effort.
