| Description: | Select Guide Rating Winston Churchill's six-volume history of the cataclysm that swept the world remains the definitive history of the Second World War. Winston Churchill''s six-volume history of the cataclysm that swept 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 Grand Alliance recounts the momentous events of 1941 surrounding America''s entry into the War and Hitler''s march on Russia - the continuing onslaught on British civilians during the Blitz, Japan''s attack on Pearl Harbor and the alliance between Britain and America that shaped the outcome of the War. |
