Summary:
"The critical six months in 1940 when Winston Churchill debated whether the British would fight Hitler. London in April, 1940, was a place of great fear and conflict. The Germans had conquered Poland, France, Holland, Belgium, and Czechoslovakia. Should Britain negotiate with Germany? The May 1940 War Cabinet Crisis involved a confrontation between Winston Churchill, newly appointed as the Prime Minister and Viscount Halifax, the Foreign Secretary. Churchill led the faction wanting to fight, but Lord Halifax believed the United Kingdom should investigate the possibility of a negotiated peace with Adolf Hitler. One of the most heroic moments of the twentieth century and some of its largest players -- Churchill, Lord Halifax, FDR, Joe Kennedy, Hitler and Stalin--Provided by publisher.
