In Command Of History: Churchill Fighting And Writing The Second World War
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Winston Churchill fought the World War II twice overfirst as Prime Minister during the war, and then later as the war's premier historian. From 194854, he published six volumes of memoirs. They secured his reputation and shaped our understanding of the conflict to this day. Drawing on the drafts of Churchill's manuscript as well as his correspondence from the period, David Reynolds masterfully reveals Churchill the author. Reynolds shows how the memoirs were censored by the British government to conceal state secrets, and how Churchill himself censored them to avoid offending current world leaders. This book illuminates an unjustly neglected period of Churchill's lifethe Second Wilderness Years of 194551, when Churchill wrote himself into history, politicked himself back into the primeministership, and delivered some of the most important speeches of his career.
