In this ground-breaking new book, Alan Ogden brings to life Lt Gen
sir Adrian Carton de Wiart, soldier, statesman and an
often-overlooked figure in British Military and Diplomatic History.
Framed through the life of Carton de Wiart this book also offers an
exploration of important topics and developments in the first half
of the 20th-century, including the Boer War, World War I, World War
II and Anglo-Sino relations. This biography ranges from de Wiart's
early life, his wartime experiences and role as Churchill's
personal representative to Chiang Kai-shek. Ogden draws from an
extensive array of primary sources including previously unseen
private family papers to examine, in exquisite detail, the life and
times of a man who experienced the horrors of war to rise up the
ranks and become a personal representative of Winston Churchill and
then Clement Attlee. This book will be of interest to undergraduate
and postgraduate students, as well as scholars studying British
Military and Diplomatic history in the first half of the twentieth
century.
