Dear Chris,
Yes - evidently !
I agree all the more as I will be talking about the participation of the French in the expedition at the forthcoming Churchill
Conference, in May, and I have been reading or re-reading some of the literature on the subject. "Controversy" is indeed present
at almost all stages in the planning and execution of the operation - let alone later.
It would be interesting to know what other "Controversies" ChurchillChat
subscribers could suggest.
Best wishes,
A.C.

Thanks, Antoine. There are some interesting choices here, and some
questionable ones. The list seems to be slanted towards things that have
been topical recently. I'm inclined to think that any list of the
greatest controversies in Churchill's career that omits the
Dardanelles/Gallipoli probably needs to be rethought.
