PLIMMER, Charlotte, & PLIMMER, Dennis. A Matter of Expediency: The Jettison of Admiral Sir Dudley North. [xi], 179p., bibliog., illus., index. London: Quartet, 1978.

Quoting extensively from unpublished letters and documents, the authors try "to give both sides of the North controversy." However, their "investigations have led . . . to the inescapable conclusion that North was saddled with the responsibility for Churchill's mistakes." North's earlier career and his post-war attempts at vindication are also described.
