He is the resounding human rebuttal to all Marxist historians who think history is the story of vast and impersonal economic forces. The point of the Churchill Factor is that one man can make all the difference.
Boris Johnson
Image
These days we dimly believe that the Second World War was won with Russian blood and American money and though that is in some ways true, it is also true that, without Churchill, Hitler would almost certainly have won.
