Guess I should explain that it's because the first of his six volume series about WW2, that he authored shortly after the War, was titled: The Gathering Storm

Saw the title and felt that I'd be incredibly disappointed if Winston Churchill wasn't in this expansion.

Why would it have to be Hitler/Stalin/Mussolini? Why not guys like Erwin Rommel/Heinz Guderian, Zhukov and Giovanni Messe?
