4.0 out of 5 stars A good 'follow-on' from the `Famous Lives/Famous People' series, for an older child., 27 Nov 2006
By ABCeDar - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
From the popular DEAD FAMOUS series of books `Winston Churchill and His Great Wars`.

`Yes, Winston Churchill is dead famous for being the Prime Minister who won the Second World War and saved Britain from the Nazis. ...Most people agree that Winston Churchill is the greatest leader that Britain has ever had..... , he was bold, brilliant and just a teensy bit big-headed. This earned him some criticism, but luckily Winston was always funnier than his enemies. Some of his best jokes are collected in this book.........
Read on.......to find out how Winston changed the course of the 20th Century. It's a story full of blood, battles and whopping big cigars.....'

189 pages dedicated to the life of the British Prime Minister, who won the Second World War. Split into chapters:-

Introduction
Timeline - the early years
Winston grows up
Winston at a gallop
Vote for Winston!
Winston at war
The House that Winston built
Timeline 2 - the glory years
Winston in the wilderness
Winston v Hitler
Winston and the Big Three
V for Victory
Winston's last hooray
Winston retired

Written in a variety of fonts with humorous black and white cartoon illustrations throughout, this is a good `follow-on' from the `Famous Lives/Famous People' series, for an older child.
