The second volume in the WWII history “written with simplicity, lucidity, and gusto” by the legendary leader and Nobel Prize winner (The New York Times).   In Their Finest Hour, Winston Churchill describes the invasion of France and a growing sense of dismay in Britain. Should Britain meet France’s desperate pleas for reinforcements or conserve their resources in preparation for the inevitable German assault? In the book’s second half, entitled simply “Alone,” Churchill discusses Great Britain’s position as the last stronghold against German conquest: the battle for control of the skies over Britain, diplomatic efforts to draw the United States into the war, and the spreading global conflict.  Their Finest Hour is part of the epic six-volume account of World War II told from the viewpoint of a man who led in the fight against tyranny, and enriched with extensive primary sources including memos, letters, orders, speeches, and telegrams, day-by-day accounts of reactions as the drama intensifies. Throughout these volumes, we listen as strategies and counterstrategies unfold in response to Hitler’s conquest of Europe, planned invasion of England, and assault on Russia, in a mesmerizing account of the crucial decisions made as the fate of the world hangs in the balance.

This volume of Churchill's great history of WWII gives the reader a "fly on the wall" look at the activities of British and French leaders at various levels leading up to the Nazi invasion of Western Europe and the horrendous aftermath. Churchill includes letters and other memoranda he sent to European leaders, his cabinet and military leaders, and letters to Roosevelt and Stalin. He writes about unsuccessful efforts to persuade Italy to remain neutral and his efforts to support Greece and African insurgents fighting Axis control. The most interesting portion of the early chapters is the description of the failures of French military leaders to respond quickly to the Nazi attacks, the lack of French citizen opposition to exposed German troops marching through their villages and towns, and the heroic efforts of the Northern French Army subordinate leaders and the generals of the British Expeditionary Force to save themselves from annihilation. Although the Allied Northern Armies were cut off from the main French forces and were being surrounded by German armored divisions, they fought their way back to the coast at Dunkirk where they held a small beachhead. Anticipating the need to evacuate troops, Churchill's Admiralty staff had assembled a huge number of watercraft ranging from destroyers to small, personal pleasure boats to bring as many troops back to England as possible. Churchill had hoped to salvage 50,000 troops to help ward off a future invasion of England. Hitler had ordered the Luftwaffe to bomb the Allied enclave and shipping to oblivion. Although outnumbered four to one, the RAF was able to keep much of the Luftwaffe at bay, inflicting heavy losses. The Allied forces fought a heroic rearguard action against the superior Nazi armies that allowed the evacuation to be a success. Nearly all the B.E.F. (+/- 200,000 men) plus another 130,000 French and Belgian troops were brought back to England. The tenacity of these troops, the RAF, and the British people's determination to fight undoubtedly played a large part in Hitler's decision to abandon his plans to invade England.
