The story of one man's defiance and a nation's courage.
Friday 10th May 1940. Hitler launches a devasting attack that in days will overrun France, Holland and Belgium, and bring Britain to its knees at Dunkirk. It is also the day Winston Churchill becomes Prime Minister. He is the one man capable of standing in Hitler's way - yet Churchill is still deeply mistrusted within his own Cabinet and haunted by the memory of his tortured father.
Never Surenderis a novel about the courage and defiance that were displayed in abundance - not just by Churchill, but by ordinary men and women over three of the most momentous weeks in British history.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Michael Dobbs' books make an impact, not simply because they are superbly written but also because they have an uncanny knack of being totally timely. His award-winning House of Cardstrilogy foreshadowed both the downfall of Margaret Thatcher and the increasing turmoil within the Royal Family, while hisGoodfellowe MPnovels showed how a small band of highly motivated men could bring a great city to its knees. His most recent bestselling novel, Winston's War, was published just as the nation was voting for Winston Churchill as the Greatest Briton.
He has been an academic, a broadcaster, a senior corporate executive and an adviser to two Prime Ministers. He was at Margaret Thatcher's side when she walked into Downing Street, and with John Major when he was kicked out. As The Timeshas said 'he certainly knows where all the skeletons are hidden'. He has also perhaps less kindly, been described as 'Westminster's baby-faced hit man' and 'a man who, in Latin America, would have been shot'.
REVIEWS:

'Dobbs masterfully dissects three weeks of the Second World War. A historical hit'- Daily Mirror
'Dobbs maintains the tension by showing the whole business as an even more desperately narrow squeak than we thought'- Sunday Times
