Churchill's Generals
by John Keegan
Remembered as a politician, journalist and historian, Winston Churchill was at heart a warrior. He gathered talented officers around him. Who they were and what they did gives this book its drive and force.
John Keegan organized the analysis of 20 of these men. He called on other historians to help. The result is a score of intimate portraits. Alanbrooke, Wavell and Montgomery take precedence, but each of the others makes a unique contribution as well.
"A great addition to our knowledge of the war that defined our century. See also THE TURN OF THE TIDE and TRIUMPH IN THE WEST by Arthur Bryant, based on Alanbrooke's day-to-day wartime diaries, both available from B-O-T." (B-O-T Editorial Review Board)
