Young Titan: The Making Of Winston Churchill by Michael Shelden
Young Titan: The Making Of Winston Churchill by Michael Shelden
Winston Churchill gave his maiden speech in Parliament at the very beginning of King Edward VII’s reign in 1901 when he was only 26. By the time the guns of August 1914 swept away the Edwardian idyll, he was First Lord of the Admiralty – the civilian head of the largest navy in the world. In the intervening years, he often cut a dashing figure, romancing several society beauties, tangling with some of the most powerful political figures of his time, championing major social reforms, becoming one of the leading orators of the day, publishing six books, supervising an armed assault on anarchists, and working harder perhaps than anyone else to prepare his nation for war.
