Description: You are considering a set of 6 hardback books, without DJ, WINSTON S. CHURCHILL: THE SECOND WORLD WAR, Volumes I through VI; PUBLISHER: Houghton Mifflin Company, MA/ Volume 1, THE GATHERING STORM, 1948 copyright, 784 pages. Volume 2, THEIR FINEST HOUR, 1949 copyright, 750 pages. Volume 3, THE GRAND ALLIANCE, 1950 copyright, 903 pages. Volume 4, THE HINGE OF FATE, 1950 copyright, 1,000 pages. Volume 5, CLOSING THE RING, 1951 copyright, 749 pages. Volume 6, TRIUMPH AND TRAGEDY, 1953 copyright; 800 pages. As Britain's prime minister for most of the Second World War, Winston Churchill--whose career had to that point already encompassed the roles of military historian and civil servant with a proficiency in both that few others could claim--had a unique perspective on the conflict, and as soon as he left office in 1945, he began to set that perspective down on paper. To measure the importance of The Second World War, it is worth remembering that there are no parallel accounts from either of the other Allied leaders, Roosevelt and Stalin. We have in this multivolume work an account that contains both comprehensive sweep and intimate detail. Almost anybody who compiles a list of such works ranks it highly among the nonfiction books of the 20th century. CONDITION: All 6 books have some very light edge wear. No other known damage. Packages mailed to Illinois addresses will be charged Illinois sales tax. Items paid by Paypal can only be mailed to the address shown on the Paypal payment. SHIPPING TIME I try to ship no later than the next business day after payment. Due to volume, however, I have a noon cut-off, so, if your payment is received after 12:00 noon, it will not be mailed until at least the next business day. Saturdays and Sundays are not business days. Occasionally, I am out of town on Fridays or Mondays. Packages that will be traveling by FedEx Ground or UPS may take an extra day to get shipped as I am not close to their drop-off locations. S/H For MULTIPLE PURCHASES: I will combine multiple items whenever possible and normally reduce total shipping costs. IMPORTANT!!!!!! International Shipping: Import duties, taxes, and charges are NOT INCLUDED in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding / buying. These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up do not confuse them for additional shipping charges. I will not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" as US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.
