描述 | This book is the first comprehensive study of theBritish Commonwealth in the Second World War. Britain and its Dominions,Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, formed the most durable,cooperative and interchangeable alliance of the war. Iain E. Johnston-White looks indepth at how the Commonwealth war effort was financed, the training of airmenfor the air war, the problems of seaborne supply and the battles fought inNorth Africa. Fully one third of the ‘British’ effort originated in theDominions, a contribution that was only possible through the symbioticrelationship that Britain maintained with its former settler-colonies. Thiscooperation was based upon a mutual self-interest that was largely maintainedthroughout the war. In this book, Johnston-White offers a fundamental reorientationin our understanding of British grand strategy in the Second World War.. |
