The Last Thousand Days of the British Empire
Author(s): Peter Clarke
The British Empire effectively ended with Indian Independence in August 1947. How did this rapid change of fortune come about? This book analyses in detail the losing hand which Britain was dealt in the last year of the war, and then to see how that hand was played over the next two years by Churchill's successors.
