Later, We See His Significance Ebb As The United States Enters The War And The Soviets Turn The Tide On The Eastern Front. But Churchill, Hastings Reminds Us, Knew As Well As Anyone That The War Would Be Dominated By Others, And He Managed His Relationships With The Other Allied Leaders Strategically, So As To Maintain Britains Influence And Limit Stalins Gains.At The Same Time, Churchill Faced Political Peril At Home, A Situation For Which He Himself Was Largely To Blame. Hastings Shows How Churchill Nearly Squandered The Miraculous Escape Of The British Troops At Dunkirk And Failed To Address Fundamental Flaws In The British Army.
