Description
Published in Defeating Hitler for the very first time, the top secret report Some Weaknesses in German Strategy and Organisation 1933 - 1945 was prepared by Whitehall's highest intelligence body, the Joint Intelligence Committee, and presented to Britain's Chiefs of Staff in 1946 to 'set down certain aspects of the War whilst there are still sources available who were closely connected with the events described'.
Paul Winter sets this unique and important document in its historical setting, providing biographies of key figures referenced in the report and a timeline of the crucial events of the Second World War. This is an important book for anyone interested in how the Second World War was won and lost.

Dr Winter has placed us all deeply in his debt by making available this historic document, which is as valuable for all students of Intelligence as it is for those of the Second World War.
