Niall Barr, "Eisenhower's Armies: The American-British Alliance during World War II"
English | ISBN: 1605988162 | 2015 | 576 pages | AZW | 972 KB
An authoritative and dramatic behind-the-scenes history of 'the Atlantic Alliance' during World War II.
The Anglo-American relationship from 1941-1945 proved to be the most effective military alliance in history. Yet there were also constant tensions and disagreements that threatened to pull the alliance apart. This book highlights why the unprecedented level of cooperation between the very different American and British forces eventually led to victory but also emphasizes the tensions and controversies which inevitably arose. Based on considerable archival research on both sides of the Atlantic, this work considers the breadth and depth of the relationship from high-level strategic decisions, the rivalries and personalities of the commanders to the ordinary British and American soldiers who fought alongside one another. The book also looks back and demonstrates how the legacy of previous experience shaped the decisions of the war.
