VICTORY: War Speeches by the Right Hon. Winston S. Churchill

R207.00

This collection of speeches covers the final eight months of the Second World War, when victory became close to certain. Churchill’s optimism in these memorable speeches, however, is muted, as the postwar period brings problems of its own: the difficult establishment of the UN; the deaths of President Roosevelt and David Lloyd George; the dropping of the Atomic Bomb; and indeed his own election defeat. Ironically, Victory is a far less triumphant and far more sombre book than might be expected.
