Features: British politician Bridges said: "Churchill is one of all my colleagues, a man with an unpredictable and astonishing personality, he has several quirks and unpleasant ways of dealing with things. People can't help but like him, his talent and vitality are unmatched. 'Churchill' is a medium-sized, rich in material, and vividly written work. The most celebrated politician of the 20th century, he was active on the British and world political stage for half a century. His life is like a microcosm of modern British history. British historian Henry Perlin's rich in material and vividly written work recreates the legendary life of Churchill. In terms of materials, the book quotes many previously unused materials, including almost forgotten newspaper articles by Churchill himself in the 1930s, as well as cabinet documents and records until the end of World War II."
