They are completely different tomes. Woods is a broad survey of WSC's books (I remember reading it on the long flight from London to Hong Kong a dozen yars ago) while Valiunas has written more of a rhetorical study of the war histories alone. Woods is a far more readable volume while Valiunas is deeper in his assessment of just a few works.

For those who have read both, how would you compare and contrast the two books? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "ChurchillChat" group.
