1940: Myth and Reality
Seller: Hamelyn, Madrid, Spain
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Condition: Muy bueno. : En '1940: Mito y Realidad', Clive Ponting examina la política del gobierno británico durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, desafiando las creencias ampliamente aceptadas sobre el papel de Gran Bretaña en los eventos de 1940. A través de una investigación exhaustiva, Ponting revela una perspectiva radicalmente diferente de la 'Hora más gloriosa' de Gran Bretaña, argumentando que muchas de las nociones preconcebidas sobre este período son, en gran medida, mitos. Este libro ofrece una visión crítica y perspicaz de un momento crucial en la historia británica.
