A major new account of Britain's military strategy between
1914-1945, including the two world wars and everything between The
First and Second World Wars were separated by a mere two decades,
making the period 1914-1945 an unprecedentedly intense and violent
era of history. But how did Britain develop its complex military
strategy during these wars, and how were decisions made by those at
the top? Robin Prior examines the influence politicians had on
military operations, in the first history to assess both world wars
together. Drawing uniquely on both military and political archives
and previously unexamined sources Prior explores the fraught
relationships between civilian and military leaders: from Lloyd
George's remarkably interventionist stance on military tactics
during the First World War to Churchill's near-constant arguments
with American leaders during the Second. Conquer We Must tells the
complex story of this military decision-making, revealing how
politicians attempted to control strategy-but had little influence
on how the army, navy, and air force actually fought.
