  • Paperback

This is the first book to provide a comprehensive account of Churchill's lifelong involvement with the empire, from the early stages of his childhood to his emergence as a self-made hero. Instead of locating him on a left/right spectrum, Toye presents Churchill as a human being, a man whose imperialist outlook brought both acclaim and dread.
