Anthony J. Cumming - author and historian.
To commemorate the 80th anniversary of the ending of the war in Europe Clive Pearson takes us on a comprehensive tour of the momentous campaigns and battles that marked Britain's path to victory in World War Two. Learn about how the tide was turned against the Axis powers beginning with the Battle of Britain through to the conflict in the U-boat infested waters of the Atlantic and the D-Day landings. There is further coverage of the war in the Far East against the seemingly invincible Japanese but who eventually succumbed to new tactics on the battlefield. Here the reader can also discover about Churchill's Secret War against the Nazi foe. It's a story of sabotage, guerrilla warfare and double cross spies but also of the breaking of the German codes at Bletchley Park. On the Home Front the writer looks at how ordinary Brits survived the Blitz and rationing - and used their inventive skills to produce such exciting dishes as 'mock duck'! The author worked for many years as a History lecturer and has two previous publications on the Second World War. He currently lives in a village near Cheltenham.
