Description:
A CAPTIVATING PORTRAIT OF THE LEGEND BEYOND THE WAR LEADER FROM A PULITZER-PRIZE WINNING AUTHOR. ' It brings its subject vividly, unforgettably back to life. ' The Washington Post .
' A prolific and witty writer. ' The New York Times
' Tremendously entertaining reading. ' Kirkus Reviews
Long before the speeches that rallied a nation and the V for Victory salute became iconic, Winston Churchill was a restless, unpredictable force of nature - by turns brilliant, exasperating, and unforgettable.
In this sharp, entertaining biography, Robert Lewis Taylor brings Churchill vividly to life, tracing his journey from rebellious schoolboy to ambitious soldier and daring journalist, years before he became the indomitable wartime Prime Minister.
With wit and insight, Taylor delves into Churchill's eccentricities, his theatrical flair, his unrelenting ambition, and the extraordinary energy that powered his vast range of talents - from bricklaying to painting, from polo to politics. This is not just the story of a statesman, but of a complex, larger-than-life man whose genius could be as maddening as it was magnificent.
It is a revealing and richly enjoyable portrait of the man behind the myth-an essential read for anyone fascinated by the personality behind the power.
Perfect for those who enjoy reading William Manchester, Erik Larson, Andrew Roberts, Max Hastings and Candice Millard.
