Clearly I remember them on their shelf to the left of the fireplace, their paper jackets torn with fond use. After studying WW2 in 10th grade, I tried to read this first one, but I found it dry and tedious. My reading has matured somewhat in the intervening years and I relish Churchill's straightforward tone and concise prose. I read this now because I found, among my sister's papers, a thank you note Grampy had written her after she, unfailingly the thoughtful finder of the perfect present, had sent him something related to these books. no reviews | add a review

Providing documentation from the participants in many of the fateful decisions that allowed Germany to regain her strength, providing fascinating background context for those decisions, Churchill always delivers. I admit, it's lengthy, it's detailed, but it is an incredible delight to read. ( )
