Publisher's Summary
In his short biography of Winston Churchill, author Peter Caddick-Adams writes that the recipe for Winston Churchill's success during his wartime premiership of 1940-45 can be found in the First World War.
He argues that Britain's survival under Churchill was precisely because the nation, and its leaders, had undergone a "dress rehearsal in 1914-18; conscription, rationing, convoys, air raids, mass production, women's uniformed services, coalitions and war cabinets. It had all happened before."
Churchill, who himself had served in war cabinets during the earlier world war, understood the art of the possible.

A really accessible & enjoyable introduction to Churchill
This book is informative, objective and enjoyable. With so many books on Churchill it’s often hard to know where to start. This book is the best place for those who have never read about. Churchill and also for those who want to revisit him in a fresh more entertaining read.
