On this very special edition of History Undone, Fergus Macphee is joined by Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry and show favourite Jonathan Parshall in the studio to mark the release of his book 1942: The Crux of War. In an extended, two hour long conversation, the three discuss the year as a whole and some of the most consequential moments. At the beginning of 1942, things looked bleak for the allies, yet by the end, the war had turned. This is History Undone. <hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
