The wit & wisdom of Sir Winston Churchill

" ... Churchill lived a life so extraordinary and made such an indelible mark on the history of the twentieth century that in 2002 the people of the United Kingdom voted him the greatest Briton who ever drew breath. His wit manifested itself in many ways - puckish, infectious, hilarious, downright rude - but its one constant characteristic was that it could be unveiled anywhere, at any time, in even the gravest conditions."--Back cover.
