About this audiobook

The Incredible Life and Legacy of Sir Winston Churchill takes an inside look the man whom many historians consider one of the greatest world leaders in modern history. But was he really that great? Known for countless and memorable quotes, including ones he came to regret saying, we delve into some of the lesser known aspects of Churchill’s life.

Surviving a death defying injury before the age of twenty, taking responsibility for the deaths of hundreds of British sailors at the outset of war and befriending a man he loathed, we explore how he went from the trenches of France during the First World War to the conference tables of the Kremlin and the White House during the second world war and beyond.

Discover the pivotal moments that shaped Churchill's career, from his stirring speeches that galvanized a nation to his diplomatic efforts to forge alliances and shape the course of history. Gain insight into his relationships with key figures such as Franklin D. Roosevelt and Joseph Stalin, and understand the lasting impact of his leadership on the world stage.

Whether you're a history enthusiast or a student of leadership, this compelling biography provides a deep understanding of Churchill's legacy and his enduring relevance in today's world.

I suspect that many Churchill fans have described this as trash because they just read the title. It would be more accurate to name it, ‘Winston Churchill, and his Times’ leaving out the ‘crimes’ word. People can read what is an excellent piece of work, well researched and presented, and leave them to draw their own conclusions without the title prompt. I found it quite sympathetic to Winston’s felonies, seeing him as a child of his times and his class.

There are so many channels/fronts which can be decisive - diplomatic, military, naval, aerial, technology, allies, money, trade, media, being on right side of morality, leadership style. You will get a glimpse of this in this book while looking at the world war from the eyes of one of the main guy who was right there in the thick of things throughout and played an important role in the outcome.

He was a man, take him for all in all, I shall not look upon his like again.” An excellent biography. I cannot see it being surpassed as the definitive one volume history of Churchill's life. HIghly readable and highly recommended.
