Categories: Biographies & Memoirs, History

Churchill: A Life (1991) is Martin Gilbert's single-volume biography of Winston Churchill, distilled from his decades of work as Churchill's official biographer and from the multivolume life he completed. Gilbert follows Churchill from his Victorian childhood and early military and political career through his years in and out of office, his wartime leadership and his final years, relying heavily on Churchill's own papers and the records of those around him.
