viii, 363 p. ; 24 cm. This book persistently challenges popular stereotypes - for instance on Churchill in 1940 or his Curtain speech in 1946. It probes clichés such as 'the special relationship' and even 'the Second World War'. And it offers new views of the familiar, such as the Fall of France in 1049 or Franklin Roosevelt as 'the wheelchair president.' Incisive and readable, written by leading international historian, these essays encourages us to think our understanding of this momentous period in the world history. -- Back cover David Reynolds.
