I have read countless histories of the Second World War over the years, it is always a joy to come across one that adds new information to what's left of my memory. This book covers the period from just before the fall of France to the end of the battle of Britain. It includes well researched details of the diplomatic and political maneuvering of Churchill and particularly, Roosevelt. Roosevelt strongly felt that the continued security of the USA was tightly bound to the survival of Britain and her fleet. He had to thread the needle of aiding Britain without violating the US's neutrality acts and galvanizing the isolationist opposition.
This is a well written book that I highly recommend.
