The Armchair General
£14.99
Re-write the course of WWII with this revolutionary new approach to history. Take the chair of Winston Churchill and other leaders. Make the decisions that will change the war – and the world. What might have happened if Poland was never invaded? Or if Hiroshima never happened? Or if the great evacuation at Dunkirk was scrapped? Would the war have turned out differently? Would Hitler have won? ‘Armchair General’ airdrops you the reader into the key historical moments and turning points of WWII – from the outbreak of war to D-Day – and thrusts you into the role of decision-maker.
***AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER NOW***
A ground-breaking approach to history where YOU choose the fate of WWII – perfect for readers of Bletchley Park Brainteasers and The GCHQ Puzzle Book.
