I am reading Churchill’s Magnum Opus 6 volume memiors of WWII.

It is a superhuman task.

Each volume is about 700 pages! Apparently he won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1953. It is a massive sea of brilliant analyses of how he managed to survive and ultimately achieve total victory in the face of both the German and Japanese juggernauts.
Anybody who reads this massive work will begin to see parallels between post-WWI, interwar years, WWII and today’s appeasement modes by the West.

Does Churchill deal with the Pacific war?

I am reading Churchill’s Magnum Opus 6 volume memiors of WWII.

I am currently reading Churchill's massive biography of his ancestor, John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough. I had read the abridged version about 10 years ago (complete waste of time). The University of Chicago Press version I am reading now is the uncut version.

It is interesting that Churchill admired Macauley and quoted him often and yet wrote the Marlborough biography largely to refute Macauley's portrayal of Marlborough in his The History of England from the Accession of James II.

I am reading Churchill’s Magnum Opus 6 volume memoirs of WWII.

You must read his four volume set of "History of the English Speaking Peoples." I have read it four times. It is fascinating that a small, isolated island could produce a culture that had such a impact on the entire world.
