Description

A collection of "exceptional works" from the British prime minister and Nobel Prize winner is "a superb volume of Churchill's writings and speeches" (Washington Times).

Winston Churchill knew the power of words. In speeches, books, and articles, he expressed his feelings and laid out his vision for the future. His wartime writings and speeches have fascinated generation after generation with their powerful narrative style and thoughtful reflection.

Martin Gilbert, Churchill's official biographer, has chosen passages that express the essence of Churchill's thoughts and describe -- in his own inimitable words -- the main adventures of his life and the main crises of his career. From first to last, they give insight into his life, how it evolved, and how he made his mark on the British and world stage.

"[A] masterful book and a history worth buying and reading and paying attention to." -- Veterans Reporter

"Churchill's speeches... sing in a way English language statesmen and politicians have tried unsuccessfully to match ever since. This volume has them all, and in chronological order, often with brief lead-ins to supply context, so it can be read as a history of the British Empire during the first have of the 20th century, or used as an anthology of Churchillian quotations... Kudos to Sir Gilbert for the service he has performed in packing the best of Churchill into one comprehensible volume." -- Buffalo News
