How Churchill Brought England Back from the Brink
How Churchill Brought England Back from the Brink

Review:Poor assesment of the real situation that existed in Britain in May 1940. The author omits important facts how Churchill in his first few weeks of his premiership turned Britain from appeasement into a formidable fighting force. The author by his own admission makes statements that are not supported by documented evidence frequently relying on personal diary entries. Consequently spun an inaccurate picture. Read more
