Publishers Description: The first personal selection of Winston Churchills greatest and most memorable speeches, chosen by his grandson.Winston Churchill was the most eloquent and expressive statesman of his time. It was as an orator that Churchill became most completely alive, and it was through his oratory that his words made their greatest and most enduring impact. He used language as his most powerful weapon at a time when his most frequent complaint was the armoury was otherwise empty. While the definitive collection of Churchills speeches fills eight volumes, here, his grandson, Winston Churchill, has put together a personal selection of his favourite speeches in a single volume. He has chosen from his grandfathers entire output -- this selection covers the whole of Churchills life, from the very first speech he made, to his last days. It includes some of Churchills best-known speeches as well as some that have never before been published in popular form.
