註釋
In this evocative and simply written book, Richard Connaughton briefly describes the causes and conduct of the war and gives us a moving account of V-E Day itself. Then, with anecdotes and with the help of three famous men who fought in the war and who all went on to hold high political office, including Defence, he analyses the vision of the future people had in 1945 and the extent to which that vision was subsequently fulfilled. Those three men are now Lords Carrington, Healey and Pym. Written to coincide with the 50th anniversary of V-E Day, and yet with a relevance far beyond that one occasion, this is not only a book of words, but also one of pictures. This is the perfect book with which to remember the end of the war in Europe.
