"Absolutely magnificent . . . a delight to read . . . one of those books you devour line by line and word by word and finally hate to see end." --Russell Baker "Bedazzling." -- Newsweek "Manchester has read further, thought harder, and told with considerable verve what is mesmerizing in [Churchill's] drama. . . . One cannot do better than this book." --The Philadelphia Inquirer "An altogether absorbing popular biography . . . The heroic Churchill is in these pages, but so is the little boy writing forlorn letters to the father who all but ignored him." -- People "Superb . . .

Synopsis
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "An altogether absorbing popular biography . . . The heroic Churchill is in these pages, but so is the little boy writing forlorn letters to the father who all but ignored him." -- People When Winston Churchill was born in Blenheim Palace in 1874, Imperial Britain stood at the splendid pinnacle of her power. Yet within a few years the Empire would hover on the brink of catastrophe. Against this backdrop, a remarkable man began to build his legacy. From master biographer William Manchester, The Last Lion: Visions of Glory reveals the first fifty-eight years of the life of an adventurer, aristocrat, soldier, and statesman whose courageous leadership guided the destiny of his darkly troubled times--and who is remembered as one of the greatest figures of the twentieth century.

- a***d (292)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe item was just as described and photographed. It was packaged well, but USPS managed to mangle the box up quite a bit. After opening what was left of the box the item still arrived in good condition and without damage thanks to the seller for putting in bubble wrap. Very pleased with my purchase. The seller was easy to work with and I would recommend and use them again. AAA+Dan Post Milwaukee Black Leather Boots J Toe Embroidered Cowboy Boots 11D (#316494429647)

The seller was responsive and easy to communicate with, which made the whole process smooth. There was a small stain inside the pocket that looked like old food, but it didn’t take away from the overall quality or value. I'm still thrilled with the purchase and would definitely buy from this seller again!
