In this brief and intense amount of the war, Churchill's sense of background is serious. 'If the Uk Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will still say this is its finest hour.' On this second quantity, Britain stands by themselves in combat resistant to the mortal risk posed to civilisation, liberal democracy, and individual decency. Between May 1940 and January 1941, the world witnessed some of the most spectacular armed service victories of all time. The audacity and brilliance of Hitler's Blitzkrieg staggered both France and Britain. The Allies acquired ready for a duplicate of the entrenched First World Battle rather than something completely more terrifying, mobile, and harmful. The results were almost fatal. Dunkirk was a win plucked from the jaws of beat. The Battle of Britain was defiance against the chances but mastery of the skies continued to be in British hands and 'Never in the field of human turmoil has a great deal been owed by so many to so few.' Inside the deserts of North Africa the outnumbered British forces travelled from win to win against Mussolini's conscripted men. There were many hardships and disasters to come, but Churchill could rightly proclaim 'By themselves but up-bourne by every nice heart beat of mankind we had defied the tyrant in the elevation of his triumph.' The analysis is read by Winston S Churchill, MP, and the volume narrated by Michael Jayston.
