Triumph and Tragedy
Triumph and Tragedy: The Second World War | Winston S. Churchill
3 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
In the final volume of the six-volume series The Second World War, the tide of war has turned in the Allies' favor--and Japan's surrender is imminent. Even so, the Allies find themselves powerless to halt the advance of Russia and lay the groundwork for lasting peace--and Churchill himself is seeing his time of leadership come to a close. In this book, Churchill provides us a glimpse not only of his own political diminishment at the end of the war, but of his predictions on the state of relations between Russia and the West--later fulfilled by the advent of the Cold War. Churchill's definitive history of World War II is extraordinary--both for the breadth and depth of its historical scope and the personal perspective of its writer, a man who not only lived in these times, but shaped them.

Malta, Yalta, Berlin, the Bomb. The Big Three play out their endgames (and engage in some serious gossip and shit-talk) in the final volume of Churchill's history of WWII. #justfinished
