VICTORY TO DEFEAT: The British Army 1918-40
Illustrates how the British Army wasn't prepared to fight a first-class European army in 1939 for the simple reason that as a country Britain hadn't prepared itself to do so. The failure of the army's leadership throughout the interwar years led directly to its abysmal performance in Norway and France in 1940. 16 pages of photos.
