Then neither you nor your so called historians or your close friend have read the book thoroughly enough, as it's precisely that sort of propagandist claptrap that Bungay sets out to disprove, on both sides.
Nor would any Englishman, to my knowledge, end a sentence with the word 'period'. It's called a 'full stop' here.
'Periods' are something else entirely.
