From our foremost historian of World War II, a vivid and incisive portrait of Winston Churchill during wartime.

With unparalleled insight, Max Hastings brings to life the man and his complexities, giving us a penetrating analysis of Churchill’s relationship with his nation, its allies, and its armed forces. He captures Churchill’s galvanizing courage in the face of certain defeat and his brilliant and prescient wooing of President Roosevelt at a time when most British citizens and their leaders disliked the Americans. Hastings also explores Churchill’s shortcomings, detailing how he nearly squandered the British troops’ miraculous escape at Dunkirk, illuminating how he failed to address fundamental flaws in the army, and exploring the disastrous consequences of several key decisions. Here is Churchill in all his private anxieties and inspiring public confidence, his tactical misjudgments and his strategic successes, his stubbornness and his brilliance.

Certain to be an instant classic, Winston’s War provides new insights and controversial judgments in a riveting profile of one of the greatest leaders of the twentieth century.
