A fascinating read June 29, 2008 M. Richards (UK) It took me 10 pages to get used to Richard Holmes way of writing, but after that I couldn't put it down. I found this an easier read than Roy Jenkins Churchill book, which I didn't finish. If you want a whole-life biography about Churchill, written in a form that excludes short simple sentences, with lots of references from others, and the opportunity to form your own opinions, this achieves it nicely. I would not have managed this book as a teenager, but as a mature, average IQ reader I found it very enjoyable.
