Allies at War: How the Struggles Between the Allied Powers Shaped the War and the World

After the fall of France in June 1940, all that stood between Hitler and total victory was a narrow stretch of water and the defiance of the British people. Desperate for allies, Churchill did all he could to bring the United States into the conflict, drive the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany apart, and persuade neutral countries to resist German domination. Meticulously researched and woven with narrative flair, "Allies at War" tells the origins of an improbable and incongruous coalition, divided by ideology and riven with mistrust, and explains how its areas of harmony and discord set the stage for the world we live in today.

Tim is the author of the Sunday Times Bestseller and Orwell Prize shortlist candidate, "Appeasement," a major re-appraisal of the disastrous years of indecision, failed diplomacy and parliamentary infighting that enabled Nazi domination of Europe. He is a Fellow of St. Antony's College, Oxford.
