Description
Winston Churchill's Finest Hour: A Reappraisal of Leadership in War. A new and dynamic assessment of Winston Churchill's life and career has been produced, challenging readers to reevaluate the complexities of this iconic figure. Catherwood argues that it was Churchill's stand during 1940-41 that saved Britain, and only he could bring together the allies that eventually defeated Hitler in 1945. Churchill's record in war has recently been questioned, but Catherwood contends that his military command and national leadership skills were unmatched. This book offers a fair and authoritative introduction to Churchill's life, exploring both his flaws and genius as a leader.
