This book is the first comprehensive study of the British
Commonwealth in the Second World War. Britain and its Dominions,
Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, formed the most
durable, cooperative and interchangeable alliance of the war. Iain
E. Johnston-White looks in depth at how the Commonwealth war effort
was financed, the training of airmen for the air war, the problems
of seaborne supply and the battles fought in North Africa. Fully
one third of the 'British' effort originated in the Dominions, a
contribution that was only possible through the symbiotic
relationship that Britain maintained with its former
settler-colonies. This cooperation was based upon a mutual
self-interest that was largely maintained throughout the war. In
this book, Johnston-White offers a fundamental reorientation in our
understanding of British grand strategy in the Second World War.
