More about the book

The book explores Britain's military strategy for defending Germany from 1945 to 1950, utilizing newly available archival materials. It highlights the British military's reliance on strategic air power and atomic weapons while prioritizing the defense of the Middle East over a substantial commitment of ground troops in Europe. The narrative reveals how British leaders focused on symbolic gestures to support France, rather than implementing a robust continental defense strategy, reflecting their broader geopolitical priorities during this period.
