Rewriting the First World War: Lloyd George, Politics and Strategy 1914-1918 analyzes how Lloyd George attempted to shape the history of the war through his War Memoirs. Throughout he is unrelenting in his criticism of political colleagues and generals, and condemns the Allied focus on the Western Front. Yet as he presided as Secretary of State for War and Prime Minister over the worst British offensives, and as Minister of Munitions organized the expansion of munitions production which enabled them to be launched, Lloyd George’s account is problematic and seriously flawed.
