Descriere magazin:
The intimate, untold story of Winston Churchill\'s enduring yet volatile bond with his only son, Randolph "Ireland draws unforgettable sketches of life in the Churchill circle, much like Erik Larson did in The Splendid and the Vile ." Kirkus - "Fascinating... well-researched and well-written."--Andrew Roberts - "Beautifully written... A triumph."--Damien Lewis - "Fascinating, acute and touching."--Simon Sebag Montefiore We think we know Winston Churchill: the bulldog grimace, the ever-present cigar, the wit and wisdom that led Great Britain through the Second World War. Yet away from the House of Commons and the Cabinet War Rooms, Churchill was a loving family man who doted on his children, none more so than Randolph, his only boy and Winston\'s anointed heir to the Churchill legacy. Randolph may have been born in his father\'s shadow, but his father, who had been neglected by his own parents, was determined to see him go far. For decades, throughout Winston\'s climb to greatness, father and son were inseparable--dining with Britain\'s elite, gossiping and swilling Champagne at high society parties, holidaying on the French Riviera, touring Prohibition-era America. Captivated by Winston\'s power, bravery, and charisma, Randolph worshipped his father, and Winston obsessed over his son\'s future. But their love was complex and combustible, complicated by money, class, and privilege, shaded with ambition, outsize expectations, resentments, and failures. Deeply researched and magnificently written, Churchill & Son is a revealing and surprising portrait of one of history\'s most celebrated figures. About author(s): Josh Ireland has written for the Daily Telegraph , Prospect , Spectator, and the Times Literary Supplement . He is the author of The Traitors: A True Story of Blood, Betrayal and Deceit , an account of four Britons who betrayed their country during the Second World War, published in the UK by John Murray.
