{"product_id":"a-life-of-admiral-of-michael-simpson-9780714651972","title":"A Life of Admiral of the Fleet Andrew Cunningham: A Twentieth Century Naval Leader","description":"Cunningham was the best-known and most celebrated British admiral of the Second World War. He held one of the two major fleet commands between 1939 and 1942, and in 1942-43, he was Allied naval commander for the great amphibious operations in the Mediterranean. From 1943 to 1946, he was the First Sea Lord and a participant in the wartime conferences with Churchill, Stalin, Roosevelt and the US Chiefs of Staff, deliberating the global strategy for Allied victory. He also led a very active public life for almost twenty years after his retirement in 1946. Cunningham's papers are abundant for the period 1939-63 and are supplemented here by Cabinet and Admiralty records, papers of his service contemporaries and of Churchill, and by memories of his family and friends, as well as extensive US archives and private papers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Simpson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0714651974\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780714651972\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/22\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.46lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.44h x 6.48w x 0.98d","brand":"Michael Simpson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086779494655,"sku":"9780714651972","price":230.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_acf4a198-44a3-4e37-81f9-7b4118c06264.jpg?v=1769096529","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-life-of-admiral-of-michael-simpson-9780714651972","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
