Many people say witty things. Many people say interesting things. Many people say things of aesthetic value. Many people say things of truth. But few people say things which have changed the shape of the world. Few people and perhaps no one more in modern history than Winston Churchill said things which helped save Western Civilization and the freedom of all of Mankind.
Churchill's words in the whole range of his great speeches rallied the British people and the Free world to never surrender, to never give up to fight on the landing grounds and beaches .They brought the British people to their finest hour, the one in which the many owed so much to the few. And they moved too the New World to come to the rescue of the Old. Churchill's immense wit, intelligence, literary skill were all put to use in the noblest cause imaginable and therefore much of what he says speaks not only to those who lived through those times, but will speak for generations to come wherever Mankind cherishes freedom and human dignity. There is much much else in this book aside from historical utterance. But it is all informed by the masterful intelligence and often humor of this great hero of Mankind.

This book is fantastic. Not only is it a great read, but it makes a great leave-behind or gift for business professionals. Furthermore, all profits from the sale of the book benefit the Winston Churchill Memorial in Fulton, MO, a non-for-profit organization.
