Churchill: Walking with Destiny by Andrew Roberts

challenging informative inspiring reflective slow-paced

4.5

Book Rating 9/10: This is probably the best and complete biography on Winston Churchill anyone could wish to read on one of our best Prime Ministers. The author loves the subject he is writing about, and you can tell in how much effort he put into this great book. What I like about this book is he doesn't shy away from the negative parts of Winston’s past, and I think that is always important when writing a biography on anyone. No one is perfect, after all. The only criticism I have for this book, and it's the reason it doesn't get full marks from me, is due to the fact the font is so tiny. I wear glasses, and I still struggle with some of the text. I wish it had been larger, even if it meant the book required two volumes or a bigger page count.
