"Immaculately researched and compellingly written . . . McKinstry makes clear that when Britain faced a mortal threat, it defended itself wholeheartedly and with hardly a trace of defeatism." - The New Criterion, "Immaculately researched and compellingly written . . . McKinstry makes clear that when Britain faced a mortal threat, it defended itself wholeheartedly and with hardly a trace of defeatism." - The New Criterion "Operation Sea Lion: The Failed Nazi Invasion That Turned the Tide of War is a fascinating insight into a definitive moment of World War II. " - NPR "Mr. McKinstry...uses his familiarity with the terrain to extract new wine from old battles. He wisely limits his focus to the home front-a last line of defense in the dark days of 1940, when England, alone, stood at the brink...If the story of embattled England in the summer of 1940 is a tale oft-told, it is, in this case, a tale well-told. As those epic days fade from memory, a single volume that evokes the valiant struggle of the British people through the prism of the Home Front is a welcome addition. Mr. McKinstry brings some fresh material for the specialist, but, more important, his ability to capture the resilience, stoicism and courage of the British people through a deft balance of narrative and detail is what makes this book engaging for any reader."- Wall Street Journal, "Immaculately researched and compellingly written . . .

It is painstakingly researched and well-referenced, and still very readable. Both students and experts of the Second World War will find it of immense benefit. At the same time, those who are interested in great wars will equally enjoy and benefit from it." -- Washington Book Review
