This time, I'm encouraging you to get a free copy of The Miracle of Dunkirk by Walter

Lord.

On May 24, 1940, Hitler's armies were on the brink of a shattering military victory.

Only 10 miles away, 400,000 Allied troops were pinned against the coast of Dunkirk.

But just 11 days later, 338,000 men had been successfully evacuated to England.

The flower of the British Army and other fortunate Allied troops were saved to fight another

day.

Walter Lord certainly goes into more detail than I will in this amazing and unprecedented

embarkation.

But then again, he interviewed hundreds of eyewitnesses.

Trust me.

You'll love the story.
