Total and Unmitigated Defeat, by Winston Churchill, 1938
"I will begin by saying what everybody would like to ignore or forget but which mus
nevertheless be stated, namely that we have sustained a total and unmitigated
defeat, and France has suffered even more than we have....the German dictator,
instead of snatching the victuals [food] from the table, has been content to have
them served to him course by course."
