The Grand Alliance: The Second World War

Description for THE GRAND ALLIANCE: THE SECOND WORLD WAR by Winston S Churchill:

Winston Churchill's great history, begun with THE GATHERING STORM and continued in THEIR FINEST HOUR now broadens its sweep and reaches a climax with Pearl Harbor and the historic Christmas of 1941 at the White House. Here is the war on a world scale: the German Drive to the East, threatening the life line of the Empire, the ding-dong struggle in the desert, the Battle of the Atlantic, with the story of the sinking of the Bismarck, and above all, the entrance on the stage of the strange new ally, Russia. Churchill alone can tell of the top-level negotiations with Stalin, of his first meeting with Roosevelt and the drafting of the Atlantic Charter. He alone can tell how the Grand Alliance was forged.
