The Holy Fox: The Life of Lord Halifax

Description:

A fox-hunting Anglo-Catholic aristocrat, nicknamed "The Holy Fox" by Churchill for his political guile, Halifax was one of the most prominent Tory politicians of the interwar period. As Viceroy of India, he struck a deal with Gandhi that ended the Civil Disobedience campaign. His meeting with Hitler in 1937 was a milestone in appeasement, yet just days before the infamous Munich agreement, he demanded "the destruction of Nazism." By May 1940, for many it was Halifax, not Churchill, who was the natural choice for Britain's war leader.Andrew Roberts's acclaimed biography draws on private documents to offer a nuanced reappraisal of an enigmatic, influential, and much-maligned politician.


Editorial Reviews

Review

"Gripping. . . . splendid history. A brilliantly clear and accessible account of the war in all its theaters. Roberts's prose is unerringly precise and strikingly vivid. It is hard to imagine a better-told military history of World War II."   —New York Times Book Review on The Storm of War

"Roberts is a masterly storyteller."  —
Wall Street Journal on Napoleon: A Life

"The best single-volume biography of Churchill yet written. . . . Roberts tells this story with great authority and not a little panache. He writes elegantly, with enjoyable flashes of tartness, and is in complete command both of his sources and the vast historiography." —
New York Times on Churchill: Walking with Destiny
