Description:
From 24 to 28 May 1940, the British War Cabinet met almost without interruption. John Lukacs meticulously follows the drama of these five days and offers an exciting reconstruction of the British government: the heated exchanges of words, the flying of different opinions across the table, the secret consultations, the search for precedents in the past, the hectic consultations with the French and Italian governments. But on the evening of 28 May, Churchill settled the matter. The five days in London were over. Never again would Hitler come so close to victory.
