I do not seem to remember seing on the List a mention of Geoffrey Wheatcroft's
review of Max Hasting's _Winston's War_ (_Finest Years_ in the original UK
edition) in the _New York Times_ (26 April - Global edition 4 May, p.13).
Online on :

Wheatcroft's concluding lines are remarkably provocative :
Had Churchill died in January of that year, Hitler might not have been
defeated at all. Is it possible that, if Churchill had died in January 1942,
Germany might have been defeated sooner?
No doubt List members will have their several answers to that challenging
question . . .
