A nation must think before it acts.
Churchill, Roosevelt, Stalin, and the Origins of the Grand Alliance
Seventy-five years ago, the Grand Alliance that would defeat Nazi Germany was forged, and three towering world leaders – Winston Churchill, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Joseph Stalin – stood at the center of this unfolding drama. Their decisions and actions would change the course of the Second World War. To discuss the role their alliance played in confronting the horrific menace of Nazi-dominated Europe, we are pleased to present historian and strategic analyst John H. Maurer.
Maurer is the Alfred Thayer Mahan Professor of Sea Power and Grand Strategy at the Naval War College and a Senior Fellow at FPRI.
