ISSUE 109
The disastrous
Dieppe Raid remains
a topic of fierce
debate 80 years later
CONTRIBUTORS
DR TIM COOK
Dr Cook is the director of research
at the Canadian War Museum, and
his latest book
The Fight for History
was released in 2020. Starting on
page 22 he spoke to Alex Bowers
about Canada’s fateful role in the
Dieppe Raid, and how the battle
has been remembered.
HARETH AL BUSTANI
For this issue’s Great Battles, Hareth
takes a look at Custer’s Last Stand at
Little Bighorn in 1876. He recounts
how the US forces came to blunder so
fatally in their pursuit of the tribes, and
how the native horsemen were able to
surround and defeat them (p40).
Welcome

A regular contributor to the magazine,
this issue Anthony spoke with
History
of War
about his latest book,
Hitler’s
Winter: The German Battle of the
Bulge,
in which he narrates the bloody
struggle in the Ardennes during the
winter of 1944-5 (p68).
he old adage of truth being the first casualty of war is as relevant
and apt today as it was decades ago. In fact, that very truth is often
the focus of fiery debates many years after the guns have stopped
firing, as the clash of words between scholars and historians endures. The
failed raid on Hitler’s Atlantic Wall in August 1942, dubbed Operation
Jubilee, was later chalked up as a valuable dry run for D-Day. However, as
Dr Tim Cook of the Canadian War Museum explains this issue, the attack
at Dieppe was a tragic disaster, since justified, by some, in light of the
triumph on 6 June 1944. In truth, the thousands of men captured, killed
and wounded at Dieppe was an horrific blow for the Allies and worse still a
victory for Nazi Germany’s propaganda machine.
