In Masters and Commanders Andrew Roberts describes how four titanic figures shaped the grand strategy of the West during the Second World War. The book attempts to give answers to key questions regarding allied strategy based on the personalities and relationships between two political masters - Winston Churchill and Franklin D. Roosevelt - and the military commanders of their armed forces - the Chief of the Imperial General Staff, General Sir Alan Brooke, and the US Army Chief of Staff, General George C. Marshall. Each was exceptionally tough-willed and strong minded, and each was certain that he knew best how to win the war. Yet each knew that he had to win at least two of the others over in order to get his strategy adopted. The book traces the mutual suspicion and admiration, the rebuffs and the charm, the often explosive disagreements and wary reconciliations which resulted.

There are countless, better written reviews of this work, but the quality of narration is superlative.

Outstanding piece

A well researched, well told, very well narrated book, that describes in a thoughtful and insightful manner the dealings of the key decision makers from the US and the UK during World War II. It's thoroughly enjoyable, surprisingly so.
There is a lot to know, about personalities, relationships, decision making processes that ended, successfully, with the defeat of nazi Germany and Japan.
Narration is top notch.
HIghly recommended.

Excellently researched and written by Roberts and Rodska does a fine job bringing the text to life.
The only thing that spoils this work is Roberts willingness to make excuses for Churchills inadequacies because of his admiration for the old boy.
None the less, a good read that gives a flavour of the difficulties of combining the interests of two very different countries.
Recommended.

Somehow we played our part in winning the war dispite the continual idiotic, drunken meddling of Churchill.

What a superb book. It filled in many of the gaps and explains in understandable detail the course of the war managed behind the scenes by some truly brilliant people who deserve our high regard.

Very enjoyable
