I’m getting pretty old and have read every book written by or about Churchill that I can find, including the superb Last Lion books by Wm. Manchester. I wish he, Churchill, had written more. He is one of my heros. The other is Ronald Reagan (renewed my Navy after the disaster that was Carter).
Everyone should read Churchill’s History of WWII. He said that history would treat him well, because he was going to write it. We will never again see his equal.
Churchill was certainly a character.
Don’t forget he was 1/2 American and his Mother was 1/8 American Indian making him far more native American than Ward Churchill.
If you haven’t seen it already, The Gathering Storm, with Albert Finney as Churchill is one of the best movies I’ve seen in the past few years.
What? A six volume history of the Second World War, four volumes of his biography of Marlborough, four volumes of A History of the English-Speaking Peoples, the great "While England Slept", "The River War", over 30 other books, dozens of newspaper and magazine articles and hundreds of speeches, a Nobel Prize in literature, and you dare demand more of the poor man? You're mad, fellow. Not since Julius Caesar has a world leader been such a prolific and accomplished writer, and I doubt we will ever see his like again.
