Churchill’s War, vol II: Triumph in Adversity is David Irving’s standard work on the middle years of Winston Churchill and his war, based, like his work on Hitler, on documents exclusively available to him and over thirty years of research and interviews and British and international archives. The second volume of Churchill’s War covers the middle years of this disastrous conflict.

After the first volume chronicled an almost unbroken series of disasters in his life, from Gallipoli and the Chanak crisis to the defeat of France and the military fiasco in Greece, the second sees him enter happier times, with great naval victories, El Alamein and the landings in North Africa. This book is a “stand-alone” book and does not require reading the first volume to understand or appreciate the story—jacketed hardback.
