Professor Andrew Roberts, Prize-Winning British Historian, Broadcaster, and New York Times Best-Selling Author
Speaking on “Roosevelt & Churchill: The Role Personalities Played in the Creation of the Grand Strategy”
(Part of a three-day symposium | Monday, April 10 – Wednesday, April 12, 2017)
Masters and Commanders describes how four titanic figures shaped the grand strategy of the West during the Second World War. Why, when the most direct route from Britain to Germany was through north-western France, did the western allies first launch assaults on North Africa, Sicily and Rome? Why, if D-Day was intended to be the start of the Allies’ great thrust into Germany, did four hundred thousand men land five hundred miles to the south, in southern France, two months later? Why did the Allies not take Berlin, Vienna or Prague, and allow the Iron Curtain to descend where it did?
