Little, Brown & Co. NY [vols: 1983, 1988, 2012], 1983. 1st edition . Hardcover. Fine/Fine. "Born at the end of the 19th century when Imperial Britain still stood at the splendid pinnacle of her power, Churchill would witness the shift a few years later as the Empire hovered on the brink of a catastrophic new era. One of the greatest wartime leaders of our time, he would go on to stand alone, politically isolated in Parliament, as he took the lead in warning of the growing Nazi threat, and would lead Britain to victory against Nazi Germany and the Axis powers in World War II... 'The Last Lion' is the definitive work on this remarkable man whose courageous vision guided the destiny of a nation during darkly troubled times - and who looms as one of the greatest figures of our century." [Pub. Info] "The Nobel Prize in Literature 1953 was awarded to Winston Churchill "for his mastery of historical and biographical description as well as for brilliant oratory in defending exalted human values".[nobelprize.com] Vol 1 -author, William Manchester 'The Last Lion Winston Spencer Churchill - Visions of Glory 1874-1932' ; Little Brown & Co. 1983.
