Max Hastings

Rezensionen

'One of the best books ever written about Churchill ... Hastings's efficient, soldierly prose marches along at a brisk pace and carries the reader with it. He has drawn on copious original sources and consulted experts familiar with them, enabling him to cast fresh light on familiar episodes ... a magnificent performance.' Sunday Times

'The book's portrait of Churchill is scrupulously fair and often deeply moving ... in fact Hastings excels with all his character portraits, especially with Roosevelt and Stalin. Hastings is truly a master of strategy and high command.' Antony Beevor, Mail on Sunday
