- catalog abstract ""Drawing on a wide range of Winston S. Churchill's personal correspondence, from all parts of his career right up to his retirement from politics in 1955, this title covers the great British wartime leader's long and consequential relationship with the United States of America, and reflects in his own words his lasting admiration for the land, people, and institutions of the country that was the birthplace of his mother, Brooklyn-born Jennie Jerome." "Special attention is focused on Churchill's efforts to gain U.S. support for Britain in the early years of World War II, in particular the Atlantic Conference on board British and American warships in Placentia Bay, Newfoundland, in August 1941, where both Churchill and Roosevelt got to know each other far better, and established an unusually close political relationship through most of the war and the remainder of Roosevelt's life. Rare correspondence is also included on specific operations, such as the aborted Operation Velvet (1942) and the Normandy Landings, as well as Churchill's relationship with Harry Truman, strained at first, but which became ever stronger as the Cold War developed. Color plates of letters and maps, many seen here for the first time, including detailed maps of Operation Overlord in June 1944, feature amongst the illustrations."--Jacket.".
