The Second World War Tome 4
ISBN : 9780141441757
"Soon Great Britain and the United Staes would have the mastery of the oceans and the air. The hinge had turned". Winston Churchill's six-volume history of the cataclysm that sweet the world remains the definitive history of the Second World War. Lucid, dramatic, remarkable both for its breadth and sweep and for its sense of personal involvement, it is universally acknowledged as a magnificent reconstruction and is an enduring, compelling work that led to his being awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. The Hinge of Fate describes the events that gradually turned the tide of war for Britain and its allies from constant defeat to almost unbroken successes: Japan's assault on the Pacific, Britain's attempts to aid a beleaguered Russia and the defeat of Rommel at the Battle of Alamein. In his introduction, John Keegan discusses Churchill's historical methods and the extraordinary achievement of The Second World War. This volume also includes appendices, an index, maps and diagrams. 'A masterly piece of historical writing ... complete with humour and wit' New Yorker
