Description

A marvelous collection that reprints Churchill’s early despatches as a young war correspondent writing from India, the Sudan and South Africa. This is a very good copy of the First English Book Club edition, in an unclipped dust jacket. The jacket is a bit shelfworn, the contents are fine.
