Description

A marvelously readable analysis of Churchill’s WWII achievements, first as Prime Minister and then as author of the war’s definitive history. Illuminates especially Churchill’s second “Wilderness Years” period of 1945-1951, when the now-well-past-70-year-old former-Prime Minister wrote himself back into world events.

Out of print in hardcover, this is a virtually mint copy of the First American edition, in dust jacket.
