Kenneth John Macksey MC (1 July 1923 – 30 November 2005) was a British author and historian who specialized in military history and military biography, particularly of the Second World War. Macksey was commissioned in the Royal Armoured Corps〔(Commissioning date 23 April 1944 )〕 and served during the Second World War (winning a Military Cross under the command of Percy Hobart). Macksey later wrote the (authoritative) biography of Hobart.〔(MC awarded 21 December 1944 )〕 Macksey gained a permanent commission in 1946, was transferred to the Royal Tank Regiment in 1947, reached the rank of major in 1957 and retired from the Army in 1968.〔(Dated 5 October 1946 )〕〔(Dated 3 January 1947 )〕〔(Promotion date 1 July 1957 )〕〔(Retirement date 3 August 1968 )〕 Amongst many other books, Macksey wrote two volumes of alternate history, one dealing with a successful invasion of England by Germany in 1940 and the other describing a NATO–Warsaw Pact clash in the late 1980s.〔''Invasion'' (1980)〕〔''First Clash'' (1985)〕 The latter book was done under contract to the Canadian Forces and focuses on the Canadian role in such a conflict. He was an editor and contributor to ''Greenhill's Alternate Decisions'' series since 1995. In Macksey's ''Guderian – Panzer General'', he refuted the view of historian Sir Basil Liddell-Hart regarding Hart's influence on the development of German Tank Theory in the years leading up to 1939. ==Publications==
