In Allies at War, Tim Bouverie fully lives up to the dazzling reputation he won with Appeasing Hitler. Again, he combines depth of research shrewdness of judgement and lightness of touch. The result is an absorbing read as well as a major work of history, illuminating the drama and complexity of modern history's greatest and yet most troubled alliance -- Robert Tombs, author of The Sovereign Isle A sweeping, fast-paced narrative of one of the great turning points of the 20th century. Deeply researched yet highly readable -- David Reynolds, author of Mirrors of Greatness A grand sweep of history - a brilliant narrative -- Antony Beevor, author of Russia Allies at War cements Tim Bouverie's reputation as one of the most talented young historians we have. Magisterial in scope, shrewd in its judgements, well-written and often amusing, Allies at War is the best book I have ever read about the politics of the Second World War. It is a book I wish I had written -- Tim Shipman, author of No Way Out
