About This Item
Text is clean and unmarked. Covers have slight shelf wear but are without crease, chips, or tears. Spine is not creased but is concaved. From the back cover, "William Manchester, in this triumphant biography, contends that Churchill's lonely battle against appeasement, even more than his leadership in war, was the Last Lion's finest hour. Politically isolated in Parliament, sometimes jeered at and scorned when he warned of the growing Nazi threat, Churchill stood alone, a beacon of hope amid the gathering storm."
Synopsis
