Churchill and Malta by Douglas Austin
This is the compelling story of the special relationship between Winston Churchill and the people of Malta. During six visits over a period of forty years he came to understand and support the aspirations of the Maltese people and in the Second World War the bonds linking them were tempered in fire and destruction. In those dark days Churchill’s determination to defend the island and his faith in the courage of the Maltese people never wavered.
