Churchill’s Generals (Cassell Military Paperbacks)
Churchill's Generals (Cassell Military Paperbacks)
A unique collection of essays by eminent historiansâ"and edited by one of the worldâs most acclaimed military writers: John Keegan. Churchillâs reputation as Prime Minister during World War II fluctuated according to the successes and failures of his generals. Most were household namesâ"even heroes. Yet all were prey to the intolerance, interference, irascibility, and inspiration of Britainâs leader, who wanted to be both the general in the field and the presiding strategic genius. Yet, despite sacking his warlords ruthlessly, in the end Churchill was served by perhaps the greatest generals England has ever produced. The chapters cover such outstanding military men as Wavell, Ironside, Ritchie, Auchinleck, Montgomery, Alexander, Percival, Wingate, and Carton de Wiart.
