In Search of Churchill - Martin Gilbert (Unabridged) torrent

Category: History
Language: EnglishKeywords: Churchill Search

Martin Gilbert’s biography of Churchill is probably the longest biography ever written, and in the opinion of many one of the greatest. ‘In Search of Churchill’ is the story of Gilbert’s thirty-year quest for his subject. He reveals the staggering extent of his historical labour and shares with the reader some of the great moments in his pursuit. It is also the story of those who helped Churchill on his. Secretaries, assistants, diarists, correspondents, soldiers, politicians, civil servants; the eminent and the humble: all of them had tales to tell, many of them published here for the first time. The portrait that emerges of Churchill is almost tangibly intimate. Here, perhaps more than in any other book about him, is the character of the man, untrammelled by formalities, as seen by those who were with him at his most unguarded moments.
