The merit of this collection is that it ranges beyond those generals normally associated with Churchill (Sunday TELEGRAPH)
Afficionados of the campaigns of the Second World War will enjoy a wallow in this book. John Keegan has produced good military writers to describe the generals both in victory and defeat (Spectator)

Churchill's Generals
Seller: World of Books (was SecondSale), Montgomery, IL, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardback. Condition: Good. A unique collection of essays by eminent historians--and edited by one of the world's most acclaimed military writers: John Keegan. Churchill's reputation as Prime Minister during World War II fluctuated according to the successes and failures of his generals. Most were household names--even heroes. Yet all were prey to the intolerance, interference, irascibility, and inspiration of Britain's leader, who wanted to be both the general in the field and the presiding strategic genius. Yet, despite sacking his warlords ruthlessly, in the end Churchill was served by perhaps the greatest generals England has ever produced. The chapters cover such outstanding military men as Wavell, Ironside, Ritchie, Auchinleck, Montgomery, Alexander, Percival, Wingate, and Carton de Wiart. Seller Inventory # 00108828393
