Acerca de esta escucha

An epic joint biography, Masters and Commanders explores the degree to which the course of the Second World War turned on the relationships and temperaments of four of the strongest personalities of the 20th century: political masters Winston Churchill and Franklin D. Roosevelt and the commanders of their armed forces, General Sir Alan Brooke and General George C. Marshall.

Each was exceptionally tough-willed and strong-minded, and each was certain that only he knew best how to win the war. Andrew Roberts, "Britain's finest contemporary military historian" (The Economist), traces the mutual suspicion and admiration, the rebuffs and the charm, the often-explosive disagreements and wary reconciliations, and he helps us to appreciate the motives and imperatives of these key leaders as they worked tirelessly in the monumental struggle to destroy Nazism.

Outstanding detail but just a bit too much of it

Very interesting detail of the relationships between the four men. But this book could have been shortened by half and still have conveyed that detail and all the important facts

History at its best.

It flew by quickly as I lost myself in the hours listening and learning, which for me, indicates a wonderful masterpiece.

Fascinating review of WW2 Events

Mr. Roberts takes a new approach in this book, considering how the impossible WW2 military alliance became possible. His analysis is fair and forthright and all 4 Masters and Commanders are seen for the humans they were, but also how they were intelligent enough to understand the larger context of their roles. Excellent book.

Holocaust?

good book, but never even a mention of the holocaust? What and when did they know and why wasn't it discussed?

Good book title a bit misleading

There was very little on Roosevelts thoughts in the book and is more fofocused on the British side.

Live Andrew Roberts, but…

Check out Napoleon or Storm of War. Masters & Commanders turned into a laborious account of mtgs and egos as opposed to contributions to the war effort.

The principles have been well covered in his other works through the events and not mtg minutes.

I understand why Robert’s wrote the book - he had already done the homework! But start off with Storm of War first.
