Alamein
Bungay, Stephen
For Great Britain, there were two pivotal battles in the Second World War. One was the Battle of Britain. The other was El Alamein. There, in October 1942, in a remote part of the desert between Libya and Egypt, the British army won an epic battle of attrition with Rommel’s Afrika Korps. It was a defeat from which Rommel would never recover and a turning point in the war, famously celebrated by Churchill as “the end of the beginning”—the line in the sand that Hitler’s forces were never able to cross. Like his definitive history of the Battle of Britain, The Most Dangerous Enemy, Stephen Bungay’s Alamein is a trenchant re-examination of an event that has been cloaked in myth.
