2 day reading about Churcill with Erik Larson

The most fascinating thing for me was finding out Mass-Observation “an organization launched in Britain two years before the war that recruited hundreds of volunteers to keep daily diaries with the goal of helping sociologists better understand ordinary British life»

So cool! I wonder whether people could make up something but overall it’s splendid.

Another thing that struck a chord with me was how Chirchill’s son perceived the news. First he was bereft of thinking how small chance of victory was.

«Of course I mean we can beat them,” he snapped. “Well, I’m all for it,” Randolph said, “but I don’t see how you can do it.” Churchill dried his face. “I shall drag the United States in.»

Probably the quotation isn’t the exact but from my point of view the answer is about honesty. The odds are I’m not right and son was skeptical but still.

Also the move with usa is smart one. It’s about asking for help though not through I-statement))))
