If you want a long book that has a much wider compass than Lemay alone, read Rhodes' "The Making of the Atomic Bomb." Lemay plays a major role, of course, at the end. It's a fascintating story about people, physics, spies, politics, war strategy, tactics, engineering, Japanese and German nuclear programs, antisemitism in Germany, etc. I could go on, but you get the idea of the scope of the book. Highly recommended if you want to see where Lemay fit in the big picture.
