Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Winston S. Churchills A History of the English Speaking Peoples is the literary masterwork of the twentieth centurys greatest historical figure. Beginning with Marlboroughs victory at Blenheim in 1704 and ending with Wellingtons defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo in 1815, Churchill recounts Britains rise to world leadership over the course of the eighteenth century. In this volume Churchill provides an excellent illustration of his unique literary voice, together with an introduction to his thoughts on the forces that shape human affairs.
