Any discussion of this book should begin with the author's name, not the title, because the source makes the material matter more.You are there, in the moments that changed the world. History is relayed, stunning in its depth even if you have studied the era. If the size of the book is daunting, know that each chapter has its own table of contents so each topic can receive the focus the reader wishes to give it.Churchill wrote six volumes to recount World War II. I'm confident you can start with any of them because I began my walk with Winston right here, in the fifth.The constant thread through these hundreds of pages is that of preparing for the Normandy invasion. June 6, 1944 marks the end of this book. Never has the journey to the destination been more interesting, more fact-filled, more clear, or more complete. No part of the campaign is ignored, from the Atlantic to Pacific, Mediterranean to Baltic, land, sea or air.Maps were crisp and highly readable on the Kindle edition, something not true for some past reviewers. This work also contains actual text of telegrams and letters between leaders as well as to some field commanders.I trust and wholly recommend this first-hand account with its vivid detail and exceptional insight. "Closing the Ring" opens the mind to history, war, and character. Thank you, Mr. Winston Churchill, for skillfully sharing, and shaping, these moments of history for us. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Perspective *by E***M on Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2023* Churchill provides a perspective on the war that no one else could. Long, but it was a long war. Will look for his series on WWI when i'm finished with this one on WWII. A great read. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent UK-focused view of WW2 *by H***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2023* As with his other volumes in this series, Churchill's Closing the Ring presents an excellent overview of WW2 from the British perspective. This volume covers 1943-44 with an emphasis on the Italian campaign which had heavy UK participation and was particularly championed by Churchill. The most interesting part of the book is the leadership dynamics between Churchill, FDR, and Stalin as they all had their own particular focus on various aspects of the war even as they tried to work together as allies. Those interested in other areas of the war, such as the campaigns in Russia or the Pacific, may be disappointed as these are not discussed in the same depth as Italy, Burma, or the lead-up to D-Day. This is mainly because the British involvement in these areas was comparatively minor (with exception of Britain's role in supplying Russia with essential military supplies via the Arctic and Iran). Still highly recommended. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/99689231-closing-the-ring-the-second-world-war-volume-5-winston](https://www.desertcart.us/products/99689231-closing-the-ring-the-second-world-war-volume-5-winston) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
