Thanks for all of these. Will be exploring each of them. Your mention of Churchill's grasp of how huge potential U.S power was reminded me of a supposed quote by the prime minister in which he said something like "So it turns out that we do win the war then", on the day that he learned the U.S was now formally entering on the allied side after the Pearl Harbor attack.
