About This Item
Bloomsbury Press, NY, Berlin, London, Sydney, 2012. 1st edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Master historian Peter Clarke…finds a fresh perspective on one of the most written-about figures in history. When Churchill received the Nobel Prize in 1953, it was not for his role as a world leader, but for literature… Churchill was a gifted and successful writer long before he was a politician, publishing a stream of books and articles over the coursee of his life... Clarke traces Churchill's literary career and unfolds the making of the magisterial work that occupied him on and off for a quarter century: his four-volume 'a History of the English-Speaking Peoples'...long before he took office, the massive project was shaping his worldview, his rhetoric, and his leadership. This was the work that defined the 'special relationship' between Britain and America." [Dust Jacket] 1ST US EDITION
