This book reveals for the first time the extent senior civil servants, and even serving officers of high rank, came to churchill with secret information, having despaired at the magnitude of official lethargy and obstruction.
Within the air ministry, the foreign office, and the intelligence services, individuals felt drawn to provide churchill with full disclosures of britain's defense weakness, keeping him informed of day-to-day developments from 1934 until the outbreak of war. People of all parties and in all walks of life recognized churchill's unique qualities and demanded his inclusion in the government, believing he alone could give a divided nation guidance and inspiration.
