Five Days in London, May 1940 by John Lukacs

Folio Society edition of Lukacs’ study of Churchill’s first five days in office where the Nazis were ascendant and the fate of Britain was in question. Five Days in London, building on official papers, published memoirs and private papers and diaries, is history in microcosm: an account of a watershed moment in world events which affected not only the outcome of the war but the future of all Europe. Key battles and the entrance of Russia and America eventually won the war, but, Lukacs claims, this is the point at which Churchill managed to stop the war from being lost. It is crucial for our understanding of history that we recognise how remarkable an achievement it was – and by how slender a thread hung the hopes of Britain.
