I picked this book up out of curiousity. The title sounded interesting and sounded like something out of the Twilight Zone.
I've only just started it. So far, I find it interesting even though I don't read historical stuff often.
If you've read this, what did you think?

This is an excellent account of the Nazi's bombing of London WWII during Churchill's first years as PM. Interaction with family members & staff & interesting anecdotes. Larson‘s an excellent researcher & this one is well done. I love the fact that Churchill taught his people "the art of being fearless." Having a leader like Churchill was a great comfort to the people. I look forward to reading more books by Larson.

TheAromaofBooks Great progress!! 3y
Daisey I‘ve enjoyed a few of Larson‘s books and think I need to add this one to the list. Stacked! 3y

Didn‘t find this one as engaging as some of Larson‘s others but I still enjoyed all of the little anecdotes especially after visiting the Churchill War Rooms this summer.
