Britains wartime cabinet brought together Conseratives, Labour and independent in a coalition of political titans, including Bevan, Atlee, Beverbrook, Morrison, Eden and Cripps. This is the gripping story of how they governed and won. Under Churchills leadership they overcame political and personal differences in service of the national interest in a time of great crisis. But behind closed doors there were rivalries and intrigues, as well as unexpected friendships brought to life here through Jonathan Schneers original research and vivid writing. With fascinating portraits of the figures involved and sharp analysis of the political ups and downs, Ministers at War is a unique and essential perspective on World War II.
