by Randolph S. Churchill and Martin Gilbert
“A milestone, a monument, a magisterial achievement… rightly regarded as the most comprehensive life ever written of any age.”
—Andrew Roberts, historian and author
“The most scholarly study of Churchill in war and peace ever written.”
—Herbert Mitgang, The New York Times
“Confronted with this mighty ocean of narrative, the only possible response is total immersion. The great tidal wave of detail plunges the reader almost involuntarily into Churchill’s life….It is a Churchilliad, and Gilbert is its bard.”
—Simon Schama, The New Republic
