Piece About Books A History of the English Speaking Peoples, 4 Vols (A History of the English-Speaking Peoples #1-4)

What a marvelous work these volumes are. Winston Churchill must have been one of the best writers of his generation. His writing is delightful to read. These books are long, but I almost didnt want them to end because the writing is so nice to read. Churchill set himself a formidable task to write a short history of the English-speaking peoples of the world. He starts with Britain in Roman times and tells the story all the way to the death of Queen Victoria, covering Great Britain, American,

I have rarely seen a book of history so deeply personal and analytical at the same time. By reading this 4-volume book, one gets a glimpse of Winston Churchill's intricate thinking pattern. As one of craftiest politicians of the 20th Century, he led a deeply pacifist British public to rise up against the Nazi's; he predicted America's downfall in Vietnam; he also infamously forced America into WWI at the cost of more than one thousand civilian lives aboard RMS Lusitania.His mastery shines

It is useful to remember that books tell you as much about their author as they do about their subject; indeed, that's sometimes the point of reading them. And these four were penned by none other than Winston S. Churchill -- soldier, painter, politician, historian, war leader, and often voted the greatest Briton -- or even Anglo -- of the entire second millennium. "We are all worms", he once said, "but I do believe that I am a glow-worm".Churchill wrote prolifically in his life, whether

Churchill's writing is clear and eloquent. But I just got bored in places, mostly with the details of battles/war .... but that's just me....

Sweeping!

If 1500 years of British history is a lot to digest in one book - Romans, Vikings, more Vikings, Saxons, Normans, all the way through the 100 Years' War through the ascension of Henry VII. Churchill's conclusions on everything from the Magna Carta to the accomplishments of reigns of the first English kings are often quite insightful. In other cases - ie: covering 7 adjacent Anglo-Saxon kingdoms from the 6th through 9th centuries, or the constantly evolving succession dramas and blood feuds of

Perhaps one of my all time favorite books. I have reread this several times. If you are a lover of history this is it. If not, you will probably be bored to death. Either way a win-win for the rest of us!
