The World Crisis, Volume 1


Gelesen von Ty Lasky

(4.9 stars; 8 reviews)

An inside view of the critical years leading up to World War I, as well as the first few key months. Told by (at the time) Britain's First Lord of the Admiralty, and one of the main players. Churchill is a master of words, and this is an eloquent presentation of a key period of history, a behind the scenes look at preparing for and executing battles and war, and a cautionary tale. It's also a direct view into the mind of one of the twentieth century's greatest statesmen. (Summary by Ty Lasky) (23 hr 26 min)
