Within a week of Pearl Harbour, Hitler and Mussolini declared war on the United States. Churchill, Roosevelt and Stalin thus became the leaders of the three-power alliance, which held the assurance of ultimate victory. But in 1942, the first year of the new alliance, the war went badly for the Big Three on every front, and Churchill faced repeated criticism at home.

Covers the period of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour on 7 December 1941 to the bitter-sweet triumph of V E Day, 8 May 1945, the end of the war in Europe.
