John Toland (1912–2004) was an award-winning American author and one of the most widely read military historians of the twentieth century.

Although primarily an author of historical nonfiction, he also wrote novels, plays, and short stories. Among his published books were four New York Times bestsellers: But Not in Shame, The Last Hundred Days, Adolf Hitler, and Infamy.
