Download or read book How Churchill Waged War written by Allen Packwood and published by Grub Street Publishers. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analytical investigation into Prime Minister Winston Churchill’s decision-making process during every stage of World War II. When Winston Churchill accepted the position of Prime Minister in May 1940, he insisted in also becoming Minister of Defence. This, though, meant that he alone would be responsible for the success or failure of Britain’s war effort. It also meant that he would be faced with many monumental challenges and utterly crucial decisions upon which the fate of Britain and the free world rested. With the limited resources available to the UK, Churchill had to pinpoint where his country’s priorities lay. He had to respond to the collapse of France, decide if Britain should adopt a defensive or offensive strategy, choose if Egypt and the war in North Africa should take precedence over Singapore and the UK’s empire in the East, determine how much support to give the Soviet Union, and how much power to give the United States in controlling the direction of the war. In this insightful investigation into Churchill’s conduct during the Second World War, Allen Packwood, BA, MPhil (Cantab), FRHistS, the Director of the Churchill Archives Centre, enables the reader to share the agonies and uncertainties faced by Churchill at each crucial stage of the war. How Churchill responded to each challenge is analyzed in great detail and the conclusions Packwood draws are as uncompromising as those made by Britain’s wartime leader as he negotiated his country through its darkest days.

But I claim with confidencethat it is a contribution to history which will be of service to the future."

This book was released on 2023-05-10 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winston Churchill was only 20 when he met the man whom he credited, more than any other, with shaping him as a statesman and an orator. As Churchill wrote: “I regard his as the biggest and most original mind I have ever met. When I was a young man, he instantly gained my confidence and I feel that I owe the best things in my life to him.” That man was Bourke Cockran, a charismatic Irish-born Democratic Congressman from New York City, acclaimed by his peers as the greatest orator in the Gilded Age of politics. Following the death of Winston’s father, Lord Randolph in 1895, Cockran who as a widower, became the lover of Churchill’s mother, the beautiful American-born heiress Jennie Jerome, who persuaded Cockran to take her son under his wing.

Book Synopsis A Harmony of Interests by : Manfred Weidhorn
Download or read book A Harmony of Interests written by Manfred Weidhorn and published by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manfred Weidhorn explores this emerging conservatism through consideration of different Churchillian interests - such as domestic issues and the concept of imperial mission. The most complex aspect of Churchill's conservatism is his ambivalence to war. A closer reading of his utterances and of the observations of those about him suggests a definite and idiosyncratic love of war. Clear too, says Weidhorn, is that violence was a means - not an end - for Churchill. A man of peace, Churchill's extremity in posing issues sometimes made peace elusive. But in the crunch of 1940, his eccentricity, or obsession, became Western Civilization's salvation. During his years in the wilderness, Churchill wrote a huge biography of his ancestor, the Duke of Marlborough. Besides presenting the Duke - a brilliant general much maligned for avarice and warmongering - in a favorable way, his work sheds an interesting light on the imminent World War II.

Prominent physicians Allister Vale and John Scadding have written a meticulously researched and definitive account documenting all of Winston Churchill’s major illnesses, from an episode of childhood pneumonia in 1886 until his death in 1965.

Book Synopsis Never Give In! by : Sir Winston S. Churchill
Download or read book Never Give In! written by Sir Winston S. Churchill and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-10-14 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A great statesmen, a masterful historian whose writings won him the Nobel Prize for literature and a war-time leader with few peers, Sir Winston Churchill is remembered perhaps most clearly today for the sheer power of his oratory: the speeches that rallied a nation in its darkest hour and steeled that nation for victory against the might of the Fascist powers. Never Give In! celebrates this oratory by gathering together Churchill's most powerful speeches from throughout his public career. Carefully selected by his grandson, this collection includes all his best known speeches - from his great war-time broadcasts to the "Iron Curtain" speech that heralded the start of the Cold War - and many lesser known but inspirational pieces. In a single volume Never Give In! provides a powerful testimony to one of the great public figures of the 20th century.
Book Synopsis Artillery of Words by : Frederick Woods
Download or read book Artillery of Words written by Frederick Woods and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 1992-04-02 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During his long lifetime, Sir Winston Churchill wrote 50 books and more than 800 feature articles. He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1953. This book, by the author of "Young Winston's Wars" and "Bibliography of the Works of Sir Winston Churchill", combines literary criticism with a consideration of the writings in the context of Churchill's public life. Almost all Churchill's publications, argues Frederick Woods, were weapons written deliberately to win a battle, whether that battle was over the future of India, the fate of the freedom-loving world, the rehabilitation of renowned ancestors, or his own fluctuating reputation. In every case, Churchill strove mightily to win, and often presented his case with less than the objectivity that might be expected of one popularly considered to be a major historian.
