Kenneth Macksey (1923), Velká BritánieKenneth Macksey (July 1, 1923 - November 30, 2005) was a British author and historian who specialized in military history and military biography, particularly of World War II. Macksey served in World War II under the command of Percy Hobart, later writing the (authoritative) biography of that leader. Additionally, Macksey wrote two volumes of alternate history, one dealing with the (successful) invasion of England by Germany in 1940 (Operation Sea Lion), and the other describing a NATO - Warsaw Pact clash in the late 1980s. The latter book was done under contract to the Canadian Forces and features Canadians as the primary protagonists.
In Macksey's "Guderian - Panzer General", he also refuted the view of historian Sir Basil Liddell-Hart regarding Hart's influence on the development of German Doctrine in the years leading up to 1939.
