When Winston Churchill was 25 years old, he had experienced wars on three continents, written five books, and won a seat in the British House of Commons. By the time he was 60, he was considered a political failure. However, with the onset of World War II, Churchill found his greatest hour. As Prime Minister, he mounted the decisive resistance against Nazi Germany and led his country to a victorious end of the war. Thomas Kielinger narrates the captivating life of this monumental figure with critical admiration and narrative brilliance. Born into the English aristocracy, Churchill received a military education. He fought as a soldier in England's colonial wars, became famous as a war correspondent and adventurer, held nearly every ministerial position in his country throughout his life, and served as Prime Minister twice. He was a recognized painter and an inspiring speaker.
