Opis

In May 1940, Britain was at war with Germany and Neville Chamberlain was Prime Minister, struggling with a poorly prepared defence against Hitler. This book presents an account of how some troublesome young men risked political suicide and vilification as traitors, and paved the way for Winston Churchill to step in as Britain's saviour.
