Description

One of the most comprehensive accounts of the Second World War. Contains maps, charts, copies of correspondence, lists of meeting and a vast array of relative information." Dust-jackets. Publishers black cloth with gilt titles to spine. Decorative endpapers with Churchill's initials. Colour top page-blocks. Gift inscription on inside. In-text and fold-out maps. Lovely set overall. VOLUME I. 'The Gathering Storm'. VOLUME II. 'Their Finest Hour'. VOLUME III. 'The Grand Alliance'. VOLUME IV. 'The Hinge of Fate'. VOLUME V. 'Closing the Ring'. VOLUME VI. 'Triumph and Tragedy'. "Churchill's ability as a writer, or as a painter far out-weighted his military ability. His early military career was nothing short of a disaster and helped contribute to countless and unnecessary deaths. With the outbreak of the Second World War his past was soon forgotten as he morphed spectacularly into the role of statesman and saviour." "From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic an Iron Curtain has descended across the Continent." These prophetic words were part of a speech Churchill gave in 1946 at Westminster College, Fulton, Missouri, USA.
