At the onset of the fourth volume of Winston Churchill's masterful eyewitness history of World War II, prospects are bleak for the Allies. The Hinge of Fate details their success in regaining the upper hand--and also explores Churchill's personal relationships with other wartime leaders, including FDR and Stalin, in fascinating detail.

In Triumph and Tragedy, Churchill provides us a glimpse not only of his own political diminishment at the war's end, but of the beginning of a tense and tragic age in world politics.
