The Hinge of Fate: Winston Churchill and the Second World War

Winston Churchill's leadership during the Second World War was one of the most extraordinary feats of statesmanship in history.

He then follows Churchill through the tumultuous years of the Second World War, from the outbreak of hostilities in 1939 to the Allied victory in 1945. Lukacs provides a detailed and nuanced account of Churchill's wartime leadership, including his strategic decisions, his political maneuvering, and his personal relationships with other world leaders.
