Comments on: Alistair Cooke: Why didn’t They Listen to Churchill? http://localhost:8080/alistair-cooke Senior Fellow, Hillsdale College Churchill Project, Writer and Historian Sat, 22 Jul 2023 20:47:29 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9 By: Colin Webb http://localhost:8080/alistair-cooke#comment-56336 Fri, 13 May 2022 14:07:31 +0000 https://richardlangworth.com/?p=9806#comment-56336 I am Alistair Cooke’s literary executor and also editor of the published volume Letter from America in 2004 (recently reissued as a Penguin Modern Classic). I’ve much enjoyed browsing your website and particularly the reminiscences of AC. As you have invited requests, would it be possible to receive a copy of his full speech given at the 1988 conference? Many thanks, Colin Webb

Great post. The First World War casualties definitely infused the British people with appeasement at all costs. And Churchill was a nudge about Hitler and the buildup of the Nazi air force. Thank God he persisted and that he had his contacts providing just how deadly the Nazi regime was.
