By 1942, Churchill faced a vastly different war than the one he’d inherited from Neville Chamberlain. Britain was no longer alone; the Soviets were now an unlikely ally in the East, and Pearl Harbor had finally pushed America into action. Yet the scale of violence remained unchanged. On average, seven British men, women and children were killed every hour of the Second World War. The country would never be the same again. In this book, historian Alan Allport reveals the war as it was lived – from the battlefields to the ration books, in the War Ministry and in the air raid shelters.
