The Second World War

The long task that Churchill set himself in writing the six volumes of the Second World War now appears in an abridged form for the use of those who wish to know what happened without being encumbered with too much detail, especially military detail. This is an impressive book--from the hand of a fine author, historian and leader most central to this Great War. Churchill understood the scope and sweep of human history, as it manifested itself in this Unnecessary War no other. This is Churchill's own abridgement of his original six-volume history.
