Churchill: The Power of Words |
Compiled by the historian Martin Gilbert. Compelling argument, keen observation, and exceptional use of the English language, as well as a journey through the 20th century. The material is drawn from speeches, newspaper dispatches, and excerpts from his books, all of which won him the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Great Contemporaries |
Among his accomplishments he won the Nobel for Literature with his histories and biographies. The language is elegant, with delightful choices of word and phrase. He is free with both praise and condemnation, and his view is quite personal. His contemporaries have to share the page with WSC as well. He is always present.
