I wanted to buy this when I saw it in a book store a few months ago, but I already had 3 in hand (I still have over 2 dozen unopened books to read).

Now seeing the replies on here, I’m hesitant to buy it now.

I have read quite a bit about Winston and that era. I have read this book and found it very interesting and informative without any great coloration by the author's obvious disapproval of the Bush administration.

Apparently, her dedication to her subject kept her from allowing her current political leanings to overwhelm the actual history to any large extend. That defense being authored, I have read other accounts that more kindly portray the desire of the young rebel conservatives and the British nation, at large, to have Churchill as the vehicle to right the ship's course.

This article makes it appear that she is a Churchill "fan" which is hardly the case.

Churchill and Bush do bear so interesting similarities of character, both descending from a famous father with whom they were distant during their youths, and both being very bull-headed and obstinate about a change of course once they had set their hearts on a plan.
