One Christmas in Washington
Roosevelt and Churchill Forge the Grand AllianceBy David Bercuson, Holger HerwigNarrated by Lloyd JamesLength11h 3m
About this audiobook
One Christmas in Washington is the fascinating, in-depth look at one of the most crucial periods in modern history: the Washington war conference of 1941, when two proud and accomplished statesmen struggled to overcome biases, suspicion, and hubris to create what turned out to be the war-winning alliance.
The authors take a penetrating look at the high-level meetings and the scenes behind the scenes: the social events and intrigues, Churchill’s booming intrusion into the daily life of the White House, the strained relationship between Churchill and Eleanor Roosevelt, and the key role played by Roosevelt’s close advisor, Harry Hopkins. As with any such gathering of world leaders, high politics and low gossip contributed to the momentous events of this time.
