1943 Atlantic Meeting by HV Morton Antique Military History Book Churchill 1st

Atlantic Meeting - An Account Of Mr Churchill's Voyage In H.M.S. Prince Of Wales In August, 1941, And The Conference With President Roosevelt Which Resulted In The Atlantic Charter.
By H.V. Morton
Published by Methuen & Co Ltd: London 1943 1st Australian Edition
With A Bookplate From Haileybury College, Brighton Beach

"Atlantic Meeting by H. V. Morton is a firsthand narrative account of Winston Churchill's secret wartime voyage aboard H.M.S. Prince of Wales in August 1941, culminating in his historic conference with U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Writing with his characteristic clarity and immediacy, Morton places the reader aboard ship as Britain's Prime Minister crosses the perilous Atlantic at a moment when the outcome of the war remained deeply uncertain. The book traces the tension of the journey, the ever-present threat from German submarines, and the quiet determination that framed one of the most consequential diplomatic encounters of the Second World War.

At the heart of the work is Morton's lucid explanation of the Atlantic Conference and the formulation of the Atlantic Charter, a statement of shared principles that articulated Allied aims for the post-war world and helped define the moral and political foundation of the Allied cause. Balancing reportage with reflective insight, Atlantic Meeting captures both the human scale of Churchill's voyage and its immense historical significance, enhanced in this copy by a Haileybury College prize bookplate that adds an appealing layer of provenance. This book would appeal especially to collectors of Second World War history, Churchilliana, Anglo-American relations, and mid-20th-century political reportage."
