### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    World War II is over, the 45+ year cold war starts.
  

*by E***E on Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2018*

Churchill has an interesting style of writing where at times he he steps away from his narratives, memos, and documents, and speaks directly to the reader.  There are times throughout the 5 book "World in Crises" series and the 6 book "World War II" series when you almost feel like your sitting down with 'Winston' in his living room while he tells this story.If you are going these books, I highly recommend that you start with book one of "The World in Crises" and read both series in order.

    A must-read
  

*by T***T on Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2019*

For anyone who wants to know everything about WW2, this series of books is a good place to start your adventure. There may be one or two places where Churchill is a litle selective in order to present his actions in the best light, but by and large it is impeccable, and supported by evidence. Effortlessly written.

    Churchill comes full circle

Volume 6 "Triumph and Tragedy" covers the time frame of June 6, 1944 to July 26, 1945 and closes Churchill's account.  The war is moving towards its' climax as the Allies land and push forward towards Paris and then on towards Berlin.  Failure in Italy to pursue the Germans was reached as `Anvil', Riviera landing Southern France, reduced troop strength and was one of the factors that change the future of Poland and the rest of the Balkans. The Moscow conference has Churchill and Stalin discussing percentages of influence.  At Quebec Churchill was very anxious to forestall the Russians in certain area of Central Europe.  Unfortunately Churchill's influence consisted mainly in a warning voice.  He was caught between a rock and a hard spot as he tries to appease Stalin and also not to sever England's life line with FDR and America. Yalta brought hopes and promises to a war weary world.  Perhaps if Roosevelt had lived maybe these could have been achieved but his death left many agreements open ended and unfulfilled.  Truman steps into office and the problems of `Unconditional Surrender' surface as surrender with Germany and Japan becomes eminent. Poland, one of the main reason for England's entering the War, is once again on stage for their sacrifice. The future of Europe and the World is being decided and the Cold War stands in the wings.Churchill's and England's influence has waned.  Even as Potsdam was failing all he can find is a concerned voice. England was deep in debt and tired of War. With Germany surrendering,  there was no more desire to fight another battle especially with Russia.  The Atomic bomb is dropped on Japan's two cities and Churchill finds that he has been voted out of office.  On July 26, 1945 he bids farewell to the Nation that he served and steps out of what he considered as an unfinished office. He states that the "power to shape the future would be denied him".  He wished he could have stayed to help with the needed peace but out of office all he could do was speak.  He was not to return again for another 6 years and by then it was to late for another coalition government.This is an important volume and series in understanding a great deal about WWII history and the start of the Cold War.  The volume is well name.  Victory blocked Nazism and then unleashed the power of the atom.  The World would never again be the same.  Old fears were replaced with new ones and national hegemony reared its' ugly head. The peace that Churchill wanted was not to be.  Well worth reading and adding to the history shelf.
