Britain's war. Into battle, 1937-1941
Todman, Daniel2016
Book
As compelling on the major military events as he is on the experience of ordinary people living through exceptional times, Daniel Todman suffuses his extraordinary book with a vivid sense of a struggle which left nobody unchanged - and explores why, despite terror, separation and deprivation, Britons were overwhelmingly willing to pay the price of victory. This volume begins with the coronation of George VI and ends with the disasters in the Far East in December 1941.
