Winston Churchill

An Intimate Look at Churchill’s First Year as Prime Minister Guest: Erik Larson, author, #1 New York Times Bestseller "The Splendid and the Vile: A Saga of Churchill, Family, and Defiance During the Blitz" Churchill’s first year as prime minister was dogged with debt, family trouble, political opposition, and an all-encompassing bombing attack on London. Many biographies document this time in Churchill’s life, but few give us a sense of what his home and family life was like during this period. Author Erik Larson gives an in-depth, intimate look at the lives of Churchill and his inner circle. Churchill Walks With Destiny Guest: Andrew Roberts, Visiting Professor, War Studies, King’s College London, and author, "Churchill: Walking with Destiny" Andrew Roberts is the author of what the New York Times calls the best single-volume biography of Winston Chuchill. He brings us into the life of Winston Churchill from birth until death to give us a glimpse into the life of such a stalwart leader.
