Opis

The full story of Winston Churchill's lifelong engagement with Ireland and the Irish. A long overdue book which at last addresses the most neglected part of Churchill's legacy, on both sides of the Irish Sea.

Recenzje

The most balanced and best informed account I have read... Smooth, and with enough "human interest" to bring the subject alive - history as it should be written, but so seldom is these days...
