.@transscribe I am talking about the *modern* left, (hence my cunning use of the words 'Modern leftists' in the tweet), not about the left of 90 years ago. The battle shifted, especially after the late 1960s. https://t.co/A4LsQCNeDH

And good! We need to push back on evil discourse and historical distortion.

Swearing to the darkness is also lighting a candle!

PODCAST LINK - SORRY NO FANCY WINDOW

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: A Military History of Britain, 1914-1945 (Yale UP, 2022) 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.

Philip Blood is a British historian residing in Germany. His specialist research covers military culture, war, security, genocide and the Holocaust.
