Was principled gentleman Winston Churchill also the master of nasty tactics? You bet he was! Before the opening days of the Second World War, Winston Churchill had done it all. In the British Army, he had fought in India and Egypt, been under fire many times, and returned it; he was well aware he'd killed members of the enemy. He'd been captured, put in a PoW camp, and escaped, surviving behind enemy lines for weeks. He'd invented tanks, floating harbors, grenade launchers; turns out that Adolf Hitler had done the worst thing possible... he'd attacked Britain, and made Churchill mad. With his back to the wall in 1940, & Nazi invasion imminent, not only did Churchill use every trick in the book... with the uncovering of new WW2 secrets, it turns out he actually wrote the book! Literally! Churchill's Secret Armies discloses the plethora of special forces, units, and departments, Churchill formed in smoky backrooms to "get the job done". This was not a gentleman's war; this was back-to-the-wall fighting dirty, and Churchill was a natural grandmaster. From the birth of the well-known British Commandoes to the obscure Cichociemni (Polish Special Forces)... from the code breakers at Bletchley Park to the men of the 712th Survey Flotilla (who surveyed the Normandy beaches), Churchill's Secret Armies is a must read for the history buff, and an absolute page-turner for anyone who 'thinks' they know 'all' about World War Two.
