The Turn of the Tide By Arthur Bryant Published in London by Collins, 1957 Hardback (with dust jacket) Description and Subject Matter A 1957 hardback edition of Turning the Tide by Arthur Bryant, published in London by Collins. The book is in very good condition, with firm boards and a tight binding. The text block is clean and well preserved. The dust jacket is also in very good condition, with small tears consistent with shelf wear and age. This volume is based on the war diaries and autobiographical notes of Field Marshal The Viscount Alanbrooke (Chief of the Imperial General Staff during the Second World War). Bryant draws extensively on Alanbrooke’s private papers to present an insider’s account of Britain’s high command during the critical middle years of the war. The book offers detailed insight into strategic decision-making at the highest level, including relations with Winston Churchill, the coordination with Allied commanders, and the military planning that helped shift momentum in favour of the Allies. Combining diary material with historical narrative, Bryant provides both a personal portrait of Alanbrooke and a broader study of wartime leadership and strategy. An important mid-twentieth-century work of military history, appealing to collectors of Second World War studies, Churchill-era leadership, and British military memoir.…
