From Hillsdale College Press

“These volumes are one of
re-publish the whole of the monumental biography of Winston
Churchill, plus all the volumes of supporting documents,
including a number hitherto unpublished. This work is one
of the most important biographies of the twentieth century
and with its unique documentation constitutes a vast printed
archive and source book for historians—as well as a fascinating
experience for the general reader.”
the great works of history. And short of
leading Great Britain through mankind’s
most catastrophic war, there is no better
education in statesmanship than to follow
Churchill’s many forms of genius as they
are brilliantly presented herein.”

Author, Creators: From Chaucer and Durer to Picasso and Disney
“A milestone, a monument, a magisterial achievement. Sir Martin Gilbert’s life of Sir Winston
Churchill—started by the subject’s son Randolph—is rightly regarded as the most comprehensive life ever
written of any age. Wise, honest and all-embracing, the work stands as a testament to the quality of Gilbert’s
scholarship. The companion volumes, moreover, represent fine works of literature in their own right, since
they comprise Sir Winston’s own correspondence. No praise could be higher than that Gilbert has produced
a tribute entirely worthy of the saviour of modern Western Civilisation.”
