Winston Churchillβs six-volume history of the cataclysm that swept the world remains the definitive history of the Second World War. Lucid, dramatic, remarkable both for its breadth and sweep and for its sense of personal involvement, it is universally acknowledged as a magnificent reconstruction and is an enduring, compelling work that led to his being awarded the Nobel Prize for literature. Closing the Ring chronicles the period between June 1943 and July 1944 as the Allies consolidated their gains towards a drive to victory β the fall of Mussolini, Hitlerβs βsecret weaponβ, the mounting air offensive on Germany, strategies to defeat Japan and the plans for D Day.
