Rezension

“As someone who also works on transnational and comparative history I can personally testify to how difficult it is to accomplish, but Johnston-White achieves it well. His book is based on extensive archival research in five different countries across four different continents, which is an incredible feat. I wholeheartedly recommend it to readers, both expert and general.” (Jatinder Mann, British Journal of Canadian Studies, Vol. 33 (1), 2021)

“Reading The British Commonwealth and Victory in the Second World War would be more beneficial to those who are studying the decline of the British Empire than to those who want to learn about the Second World War. The strengths of the work lay in its insights into the relationships between the UK and the Dominions.” (Brad, Canadian Military History, Vol. 28 (1), 2019)
