<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Published in the UK in 2008 by Ebury Press"--T.p. verso.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Never give in! Winston Churchill is famous for admonishing: This is the lesson: never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never. What most people don't know is that when he said this he was addressing not a nation facing the threat of invasion, but a roomful of schoolboys at his old school. A powerful, persuasive speaker and notorious wit, Churchill is one of the twentieth century's most oft-quoted leaders -- and one frequently misquoted or quoted out of context. Yet his actual remarks were often much wiser and wittier than reported. <i>Churchill By Himself</i> is the first exhaustive, attributed, and annotated collection of Churchill sayings. Edited by a longtime Churchill scholar and authorized by the Churchill estate, the quotations provide the first wholly accurate record of the esteemed statesman's words.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Richard M. Langworth</b> is the author of <i>A Connoisseur's Guide to the Books of Winston Churchill</i> and the editor of <i>Finest Hour</i>, the journal of Winston Churchill. He served as president of The Churchill Centre from 1990 to 1999 and has since served on its board of trustees.
