Description
This is a very good later printing of the First English Edition, in an unclipped dust jacket.According to David Cannadine, this constituted, “The best one-volume life yet written,” in 1994. Henry Kissinger, however, strongly disagreed, writing in the New York Times Book Review: “For readers interested in an account of what Churchill did, Mr. Rose’s book offers a workmanlike, if not very generous treatment… What it lacks is any appreciation for the meaning of Churchill’s purposes.”
