By common consent the greatest CIGS in the history of the British Army, Alanbrooke occupied a unique position at the heart of Britain's efforts in WWII. Scarcely a man to pull punches, he provides a blow-by-blow account of how the war was waged and won, sparing no-one from politicians to generals of virtually every Allied nation. This is the first publication of the diaries in unabridged form, complementing rather than superseding the famous and long-standing two-volume abridgement by Bryant.
