Drawing on the War Cabinet papers, other government documents,
private diaries, newspaper accounts, and memoirs,Never Surrender
tells the story of summer of 1940, the summer of the 'Supreme
Question' of whether or not the British were to surrender to the
impending threat of Hitler's invasion. The events, individuals, and
institutions that influenced the War Cabinet's deliberations offer
a panoramic view of the summer of 1940. Impressive in scope but
attentive to detail, Kelly takes readers from the battlefield to
Parliament, to the government ministries, to the British high
command, to the desperate Anglo-French conference in Paris and
London, to the American embassy in London, and to life with the
ordinary Britons. Bringing vividly to life one of the most heroic
moments of the twentieth century and intimately portraying some of
its largest players - Churchill, Lord Halifax, FDR, Joe Kennedy,
Hitler, Stalin and others - Never Surrenderis a character-driven
narrative of a crucial period in World War II history and the men
and women who shaped it.
