"In this incisive biography, Paul Addison examines both the life of the most iconic figure in twentieth-century Bristish history, and the battle over his reputation, which continues to this day."--Jacket

A fine brief history of Winston Churchill's political carrier. I feel like the author could stand to include more context to the events around which Churchill was maneuvering, rather than sticking so rigorously to the politics. It also seems to me that Addison views Churchill through rose-tinted glasses (the title is already good evidence for that). Churchill is a controversial historical figure, and Addison kinda brushes over his controversies.
