On Winston Churchill's first day as prime minister, Hitler invaded Holland and Belgium. Poland and Czechoslovakia had already fallen, and the Dunkirk evacuation was just two weeks away. For the next twelve months, Hitler would wage a relentless bombing campaign, killing 45,000 Britons (30,000 of them Londoners) and destroying two million homes. It was up to Churchill to hold the country together and persuade President Franklin Roosevelt that Britain was a worthy ally--that she was willing to fight to the end.
##“When I look back on the perils which have been overcome, upon the great mountain waves in which the gallant ship has driven, when I remember all that has gone wrong, and remember also all that has gone right, I feel sure we have no need to fear the tempest. Let it roar, and let it rage. We shall come through” - W. Churchill
評分##take me forever to march through this book
評分##Very interesting to read. In another testing period of history, the British people teaches me a lesson of courage and faith.
評分##能把曆史寫得這麼好讀 真心佩服瞭。有些章節真的幽默風趣。

評分##John Lee作為朗讀者,給這本書增添瞭不少色彩。有聲書末尾丘吉爾的演講更是加重瞭曆史感。雖然知道事件發生的來龍去脈,但是這個故事似乎著重於人物刻畫,所以更加接地氣。
評分##喜歡指點江山的可以讀一下,我等貧下中農就不讀瞭,喜馬拉雅上有penguin audio
評分##作者一貫的寫作方式,通過曆史人物留下的筆記/記錄還原齣曆史事件中的細節,用小說的筆法書寫齣來。雖然看多瞭之後有一定的倦怠感,但是仍然不失為一篇佳作。最讓人感慨的莫過於珍珠港事件傳到英國,讓苦苦等待美國加入戰局的英國人看到瞭希望。頓時讓人想到重慶人民在珍珠港之後彈冠相慶的辛酸和無奈
評分##聚焦1940年5月到1941年5月丘吉爾臨危受命 喜歡生動有電影感的文風 既有戰火連綿和硝煙飛揚 也有普通民眾非常時期的艱辛與苦中作樂 想想防毒麵罩僅是稀鬆平常的畫麵 扛過疫情依舊難以想象如何咬緊牙關挺過戰亂 丘吉爾著實是位偉大的領導者 能激發國民恒久的勇氣和希望是比調度軍馬更為難得的品質 給團隊寫的公文要簡短memo真是寶藏! 愈發喜歡Clementine 訓斥戴高樂毫不嘴軟真是太霸氣瞭 極其嚮往她和丘吉爾既能共甘苦謀大計又能為彼此留有空間的婚姻關係 對Mary很有好感 她的日記讀來既有年輕女孩子的浪漫敏感又不乏對傢國大事的關注和對父親的體恤 讀至尾聲 雖然戰局尚餘幾年 但光明的輪廓已經讓心緒變得敞亮 竟有一絲熬過來這一年多而産生的共鳴感 Epilogue讀完預料之外滿滿暖意 愛不釋手!
