"""...an interesting study that will be particularly useful for students."" ""Levine, who teaches at the Borough of Manhattan Community College and has published a number of books on the war, concludes that the chances of a complete Axis triumph were probably non-existent. He argues that portraying the conflict as a series of narrow escapes from total disaster makes it more interesting, but is a conclusion that is weakened by the poor quality of Axis leadership and planning."" ""Levine argues that the 1943 crisis did not endanger Britain's survival but rather the Allies' ability to sustain offensives. He suggests that this ability was a product of the Allies' taking risks with their supply lines and provision of aircraft."" -Jeremy Black MBE, Professor of History at University of Exeter, in War In History, July 2013"
