We think we know Winston Churchill. There have been countless books, movies and documentaries. But British historian ANDREW ROBERTS’ recent biography makes the man come alive as never before. In a book that’s been called “the best single-volume biography of Churchill yet written,” Roberts traces the arc of Churchill’s life from boyhood through military service to leadership of his country in its darkest days. With prodigious, original research and deep insight, Roberts gives us a revelatory, multi-dimensional portrait. His Churchill is ambitious, witty, emotional, stubborn and gifted with a sense of his own destiny. Roberts talks about the man and his life, and about the unique passions of the biographer.
