Churchhill’s command of the English language was astounding.
He was a true statement for his time, and the man England needed most when it was under siege from the forces of national Socialism…
And he knew that Stalin was a POS as well.
But the thing is...in Victorian and Edwardian times, most Brits had good vocabularies.
Look at the entertainment ( Gilbert & Sullivan operettas ), books...even books written for children and tweens...the vocabulary used was great! Which is one reason WHY i have always preferred these books for children.
And actually, it was also true in many places in America as well.
