The Hinge of Fate
Winston Churchill's six-volume history of the cataclysm that swept the world remains the definitive history of the Second World War.
The Hinge of Fate by Winston Churchill is part of his six-volume series detailing the monumental events of the Second World War. This series remains the definitive history of the conflict that swept the globe, noted for its lucid and dramatic narrative.
The work is remarkable not only for its breadth and sweep but also for its vivid sense of personal involvement. Universally acknowledged as a magnificent reconstruction, it stands as an enduring and compelling work that contributed to Churchill being awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature.

It covers Japan's successful assault on the Pacific, Britain's efforts to support a beleaguered Russia, and the eventual defeat of Rommel at the Battle of Alamein.
