At The End Of The War, The Biggest Battle Is Peace.
Michael Dobbs' first novel, 'House Of Cards', projected the infamous character Francis Urquhart from the page to the small screen in the award-winning BBC series. His books have foretold the downfall of Prime Ministers and the growing turmoil within the Royal Family. This brilliant new novel traces the human side of the leaders who held the future of the world in their hands, showing the delusions, paranoia, compromises and betrayal that come with statesmanship in times of crisis.
At the close of World War II, in 1945, the most powerful men alive - Winston Churchill, Roosevelt and Stalin - gather to survey the smoking ruins of Europe at the famous Yalta Conference. But as the negotiations begin that will eventually change the map of the world, the tension and pressure on political partnerships intensifies. In the fight against Hitler, Churchill's difficult relationship with the leaders of the Allied Powers, Roosevelt and Stalin, becomes a power struggle that will have the most dramatic global consequences.
