Based on 15 years' research, this biography tells the story of how Churchill's political career developed, and why he could serve in both Conservative and Liberal governments. It reassesses his role in the Dardanelles fiasco and it describes his long climb back to power and influence as well as the human price which his ambition exacted from those around him. The conclusion demonstrates how and why the man created by the previous six decades had the vision he had in 1940 - and what the limits of it were.

An Important Revision of Churchill's Life

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 31 March 2021

Verified Purchase

A very good book about the life of Churchill, and an important revisionist work. However, the language was stilted at times and it might not be to everyone's taste.

Am enjoying this book although am only one third of the way through - just starting to read about re-armament post 1935. Has had some good insights so far. However, the prose style is not the best.

Churchill: The End Of Glory, John Charmley. Exhaustive study of Churchill's political life

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 22 February 2010

Now remembered (and much lauded) as the leader who brought us through the darkest hours of the second world war, people often forget that his ascension to number ten was after a long career in British politics, during which he held most of the great offices of state. In this time he was responsible for many decisions which had profound effects during the day.

This exhaustive political biography gives a quick overview of Churchill's life up to entering Parliament, and then details his every move as part of the British political establishment up until the famous election victory of Clement Atlee in 1945. It studies his beliefs, and shows how he was influenced and grew over his time in office. It looks at some of his more famous actions, and studies the reason behind them. It shows a man of conscience and egotism, who fought for what he believed in, often with great ability and skill, but was equally always on the lookout for Number One. This might be a bit of an awkward read for those who worship Churchill, but it is refreshing to have a more dispassionate and detached analysis than one usually seems to find.

This is an excellent book, that I realy recommend to those who have any interest in Churchill and want to know a little bit more than the orthodox history.
