Winston Churchill was the most eloquent and expressive statesman of his time. It was as an orator that Churchill became most completely alive, and it was through his oratory that his words made their greatest and most enduring impact. While the definitive collection of Churchill's speeches fills eight volumes, here for the first time, his grandson, Winston S. Churchill, has put together a personal selection of his favorite speeches in a single, indispensable volume. He has chosen from his grandfather's entire output and thoughtfully introduces each selection. The book covers the whole of Churchill's life, from the very first speech he made to those of his last days. It includes some of Churchill's best-known speeches as well as some that have never before been published in popular form. Today, Sir Winston Churchill is revered as an indomitable figure and his wisdom is called upon again and again. Reading these speeches, from the perspective of a new century, we can once again see Sir Winston Churchill's genius and be moved and inspired by his words.

Winston S. Churchill

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Winston S. Churchill (1874-1965) has been called 'the greatest Briton'. An international statesman, orator, biographer, historian, author and Nobel Prize winner, his works remain in print with the world's leading publishers.

Educated at Harrow and Sandhurst, Winston spent several years in the army before becoming a newspaper correspondent and then an MP. His cabinet positions included First Lord of the Admiralty at the outbreak of the First World War and later Chancellor of the Exchequer.

Churchill became Prime Minister in 1940 and for five years led Britain though its 'finest hour'. Defeated in the July 1945 election, he was Leader of the Opposition until re-elected Prime Minister in 1951. He was knighted in 1953, the same year he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. He stepped down as Prime Minister in 1955 and remained an MP until 1964.

GIFT FOR CHURCHILL FAN

Can't review the book content but can say that it arrived in good time, wrapped with great care and as if fresh from the printer. The supplier is one I would recommend and look forward to dealing with in the future.

given the recent turn of events in the world, I became very interested in Churchill. This book does a good job of presenting some of his most famous speeches and giving the reader a look at a tremendous speaker and exceptional human being. His complete speeches fill several books, so this is a lot more user friendly for those who want the more condensed version.

Churchill was a tremendous figure. Who talks like this now? What politician has the moral courage to go against what is popular or easy to do what he believes to be right?

I really wish we had leaders like this in our time. Churchill lead England through a brutal period of a year and a half when nobody was standing against Hitler in Europe. He never sugar coated things. He believed absolutely in what he had to do, and more importantly, he explained things clearly to people and made them understand that he needed them. Just check out his speechs during the Battle of Britain. He drives you with his words, spurring his listeners to action.

Anyone who loves history should buy this book and add it too their library. It's powerful stuff.

In a small book the history of over 50 years is relayed in a fascinating way by Churchill's life and rousing speeches. Easy to read and a great learning experience from high school(my grandson had a paper to write on Churchill) to old age(I was born just before the war in England)

TWENTIETH CENTURIES GREATEST STATESMAN!

Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2017

Verified Purchase

It is the experience; Place yourself back in-time while reading this. A good way to do this is 1st watching on NETFLIX "Walking with Destiny" and a 7 part series "The War" as it places you 'in the period'.
Then...begin reading this book.
The 1st speeches begin 1897. As they move forward in time, I realized that some of these speeches would be relevant, if spoken today! Through the war years until just before his passing in January 1965. His speeches arouse every emotion of the human spirit! A truly great read!

Powerful words and ideas still relevant today!

Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2020

A great read. Churchill was the greatest statesman/orator of the 20th century. His words have as much relevance today as went he presented them to world over 1/2 century ago. Masterpieces of logic and oration. Paraclies of ancient Athens, Samuel Adam's, Abraham Lincoln, and Winston Churchill are the best orators of western civilization.

Vielleicht der Redner des 20. Jahrhunderts

Reviewed in Germany on January 5, 2013

Verified Purchase

Weniger durch seinen ja gehandicapten Vortragsstil wurde Churchill zu einem der großen Redner des Jahrhunderts, sondern durch die Geschliffenheit der Sprache. Die humanistische Upper-Class-Erziehung (Abstammung von Marlborough) hatte da einmal etwas Gutes, denn sie gab Churchill ein Gefühl für Sprache und präzise, mächtige Vokabeln aus einem weiten Wortschatz.

Diese Ausgabe ist ein kostengünstiger US-Reprint mit einigen schlichten Fotos und wäre als Prachtband für eher darauf Achtende komplett ungeeignet. Sogar der Buchschnitt ist zumindest bei meinem Exemplar regelrecht missraten. Doch fasst "Never give in" auf rund 500 Seiten wichtige Reden Churchills zusammen und ist bezahlbar. Ausgesucht und mit Kurzeinführungen versehen hat es Enkel Winston jr. Ein bisschen Geschichtskenntnisse vorher helfen gleichwohl zum Einordnen.

Ich las es jetzt als gelebte Rhetorik und Geschichte - als gelebtes Leben mit Irrtümern und richtigen Entscheidungen. Vorsicht: wer anfängt, wird es auch bis zum Schluss durchlesen wollen. :-) Die Ausgabe könnte selbst für den Preis noch liebevoller gedruckt sein, doch fünf Sterne für den gut eingeführten Inhalt.
