History/Military Churchill's Triumph (Audiobook)
Posted on 2010-03-16
|  |
More Churchill's Triumph (Audiobook) By Michael Dobbs I have to say that this is the first of Mr Dobbs' books that I have read, having picked it up at an airport bookstore, but it assuredly won't be the last. The Yalta conference in early 1945 pretty much decided the fate of much of the post WW II world, yet to ordinary readers little is known about it. Perhaps it is just as well. To think that the world as we have known it for the past six decades was effectively shaped by a desperately ill Roosevelt who could no longer argue with a mouse, a Churchill whose influence was on the wane, and a rampant Stalin is all too frightening. Mr Dobbs has done a splendid job of going behind the scenes of Yalta and giving non-historians possibly their first glimpse of what went on. He does a particularly good job of showing Churchill, not as the superhuman hero, but as an all-too-human person facing the reality that his country is about to be left behind in the Superpower Stakes. We have Roosevelt, a broken man, and we have Stalin, all revealed for what they truly were at the time. Mr Dobbs does not hero worship Churchill, even calling him a naive old fool at one point. This is historical fiction at about its very best, and the book is highly recommended.
