    About Winston Churchill

    One of the greatest historians writing today gives us a defining portrait of the incomparable Winston Churchill

    In his landmark biography of Winston Churchill, acclaimed historian John Keegan offers a very human portrait of one of the twentieth century’s enduring symbols of heroic defiance. From Churchill’s youth as a poor student to his leadership during World War II, Keegan reveals a man whose own idea of an English past—eloquently embodied in his speeches—allowed him to exhort a nation to unprecedented levels of sacrifice. The result is a uniquely discerning look at one of the most fascinating personalities in history.

    “The best military historian of our generation.” –Tom Clancy
