Sobre este artículo
From the Publisher's Note: "This volume is an abridgement of Sir Winston Churchill's great work The Second World War, which consists of the six volumes: The Gathering Storm, Their Finest Hour, The Grand Alliance, The Hinge of Fate, Closing the Ring, and Triumph and Tragedy."
"The text has been reduced to approximately one quarter of its original length, yet it graphically presents the war events and planning in the words of the magnificent leader who his writing was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. The result is not so much a condensation of history as the quintessence of the war as it was seen by its greatest protagonist."

Sinopsis
The quintessential account of the Second World War as seen by Winston Churchill, its greatest leader As Prime Minister of Great Britain from 1940 to 1945, Winston Churchill was not only the most powerful player in World War II but also the free world's most eloquent voice of defiance in the face of Nazi tyranny. Churchill's epic accounts of those times, remarkable for their grand sweep and incisive firsthand observations, are distilled here in a single essential volume. Memoirs of the Second World War is a vital and illuminating work that retains the drama, eyewitness details, and magisterial prose of his classic six-volume history and offers an invaluable view of pivotal events of the twentieth century.
