Ebook About A vivid and incisive portrait of Winston Churchill during wartime from acclaimed historian Max Hastings, Winston’s War captures the full range of Churchill’s endlessly fascinating character. At once brilliant and infuriating, self-important and courageous, Hastings’s Churchill comes brashly to life as never before. Beginning in 1940, when popular demand elevated Churchill to the role of prime minister, and concluding with the end of the war, Hastings shows us Churchill at his most intrepid and essential, when, by sheer force of will, he kept Britain from collapsing in the face of what looked like certain defeat. Later, we see his significance ebb as the United States enters the war and the Soviets turn the tide on the Eastern Front. But Churchill, Hastings reminds us, knew as well as anyone that the war would be dominated by others, and he managed his relationships with the other Allied leaders strategically, so as to maintain Britain’s influence and limit Stalin’s gains. At the same time, Churchill faced political peril at home, a situation for which he himself was largely to blame. Hastings shows how Churchill nearly squandered the miraculous escape of the British troops at Dunkirk and failed to address fundamental flaws in the British Army. His tactical inaptitude and departmental meddling won him few friends in the military, and by 1942, many were calling for him to cede operational control. Nevertheless, Churchill managed to exude a public confidence that brought the nation through the bitter war. Hastings rejects the traditional Churchill hagiography while still managing to capture what he calls Churchill’s “appetite for the fray.” Certain to be a classic, Winston’s War is a riveting profile of one of the greatest leaders of the twentieth century.Book Winston's War Review :
Much has been said and written about Winston Churchill as a man of destiny in 1940, as he became wartime prime minister of the United Kingdom at a hour of supreme crisis. Churchill would guide Britain through a long war, making the most of limited assets and of uncertain allies. As author Max Hastings makes clear, Churchill was uniquely suited to the role and the moment, in ways not always clear at this distance of time.Few men could have rallied Britain in the dark days after Dunkirk. Fewer could have found a reason to continue the war, alone, against Nazi Germany with no clear path to victory. But the author is quite honest in documenting that many mistakes were made along the way, accruing to Churchill's way as warlord. In the end, Churchill would be dismissed from office because the world had changed, and he hadn't changed with it. This is a balanced and focused account, well recommended to students of the man and the conflict. I do not know of a more insightful, eloquent historian and now biographer than Max Hastings. One goes away knowing that wars are fought by soldiers but made, for evil or good, by leaders. And Hastings shows us that the greatest of them may have been the most recent. Aside from just Churchill we get wonderful epigrams. Here are only a few from Hasting’s rich narrative:“[Britain was] a nation which in those days clung to its radio receivers as storm-bound sailors once lashed themselves to the masts of their ships.”“The views of the British and American governments were distorted by logic.”“The narrative of the Second World War presented by most historians is distorted by the fact that it focuses upon what happened, rather than what did not.”I need this!And I seek out any history narrated by Robin Sachs. This fine actor, who died too soon, lends his skills to storytelling. I think the best storytelling in English is by the English. Sachs has a clear, resonant baritone and a fluidity of phrasing that is at once restful and engaging. A consolation for losing Robin is that he will live on by making great history live.
