Churchill (Life & Times)
Winston Churchill (1874-1965), British Prime Minister and leader of the wartime alliance against Nazi Germany, is a towering figure. When he died, writes the author, "one might have thought it was not a man who was being born to his grave, but British history itself".

Review:
"'The succinct Churchill from Haffner - a gifted refugee journalist who returned to postwar celebrity in Germany - fizzes with neatly crafted epigrams and snap judgements. The swagger and panache of Haffner's prose make him a suitable guide to the gaudy political theatre mounted by Churchill over more than half a century.' Boyd Tonkin The Independent"
About the Author:
Sebastian Haffner was ‘one of the outstanding figures in European journalism’ (Guardian, 1999). He emigrated to London from Berlin in the 1930s and became a vocal critic of the Nazi regime, writing influential articles in the Observer. After the war, he became Germany’s pre-eminent political commentator. His many books include Germany: Jekyll and Hyde and The Meaning of Hitler and most recently Defying Hitler: A Memoir (Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 2002).
