39. Falkland Islands Information Portal - History There have been so many books on the Falklands war that it is particularly of a shorter history entitled Britain and the Falklands war (London, 1988). http://www.falklands.info/history/82freading.html

Further Reading on the Falklands War of 1982 (Notes by Michael Parsons, 2000) There have been so many books on the Falklands War that it is particularly difficult to suggest a selection. One of the best of the first wave of books published almost immediately after the conflict is Paul Eddy et.al. "The Falklands War: The Full Story by the Sunday Times Insight Tea" (London, 1982). However, arguably the best, and most readily available, book on the Falklands War remains Max Hastings and Simon Jenkins, "The Battle for the Falklands" (London, 1983). Also of interest is Martin Middlebrook, "Operation Corporate" (London, 1982), republished in 1987 as "Task Force: The Falklands War, 1982". The same author studied the war from the Argentine viewpoint in "The Fight for the 'Malvinas'" (London, 1989). Lawrence Freedman and Virginia Gamba-Stonehouse, "Signals of War: The Falklands Conflict of 1982" (London, 1990) looks closely at the conflict from both sides, and shows not only the deep conflict of interests but also the many misunderstandings, misperceptions and miscalculations that affected diplomats and politicians both before and during the war, as well as the highly unpredictable nature of war itself. Lawrence Freedman is also the author of a shorter history entitled "Britain and the Falklands War" (London, 1988).

40. Falkland Islands Info Portal - History Articles Why Britain Won The Falklands war. From Tempest in a Teapot by Reginald Elliot, 1983. This was the question posed by American academics Reginald http://www.falklands.info/history/hist82article13.html

Why Britain Won The Falklands War "Why did Britain win? The British victory was composed of equal measures of professionalism and luck, both essential factors in the prosecution of a war. On paper, Argentina appeared to have a decided edge, in men, materiel, planes, position, and supply lines. The Argentine advantage, however, was eroded away by the British forces as the war developed, the experience of the British military being a decisive factor. Britain also used the press much more efficiently than Argentina, giving the impression of evenhandedness, truthfulness, even humbleness in advancing its claims, when in reality the military manipulated the few reporters assigned to the fleet by feeding them exaggerated but believable reports about the large numbers of British troops, ships, and planes being sent to the South Atlantic. While the Argentine press releases were discredited almost from the first day of the campaign, Britain's official government press office was regarded by most westerners as the only news source that was even partially veracious. In other words, Britain won the psychological war, and by doing so, gave an enormous boost to its military position. As the war progressed, even Argentina began believing British claims. This was, of course, precisely what Britain intended. The sinking of the Argentine ship General Belgrano not only removed from the seas Argentina's most powerful warship, but also effectively marked the end of the naval war in the Falklands; thereafter, Argentina kept its ships within sighting distance of the mainland.
