Description | To commemorate the fortieth anniversary of Churchill s death, renowned historian Richard Holmes brings his unparalleled knowledge of the military together with his eye for illuminating detail to his biography of one of Britain s greatest leaders.Although much has been written on Churchill s management of Britain through the crisis years of the Second World War, In the Footsteps of Churchill takes the reader back to the explosive colour of his early life to discover the influences that shaped the man.Holmes examines how the qualities that made Churchill great also led him to commit catastrophic blunders. The recklessness that made him a hero when he was a young correspondent during the Boer War, for example cost thousands of Allied lives when it emerged during his planning of the Gallipoli campaign in 1915.From the beginning, we are immersed in the colourful detail and atmosphere of Churchill s world. | Release Date | 2005 | Author | Richard Holmes | Format | Dimensions 16.1x24.0x3.5 cm 351 pages book | Publisher | BBC Books | Subject(s) | Biography & Autobiography / Historical Biography & Autobiography / Political History / Europe / Great Britain / General Political Science / Political Process / Leadership |
