More books by Churchill to be on the lookout for! Gr8! I love books by or about Churchill, and his son and grandson after him collaborated on a few titles that I have.
I’ve got Winston S. Churchill, Youth and also Young Statesman, by Randolph Churchill, with all sorts of photos and documents.
The published notes of his physician Lord Moran.
Winston Churchill by Virginia Cowles.
and lastly, The Six Day War by Randolph S. and Winston S. Churchill (grandson).
I’d love to get my hands on more, but funds are limited. Just moved to Haifa at great expense.
One of the great things about life in Israel is that there are dumpsters set aside for discarded books, and if you dive into them, you can find some treasures. That’s where I got all of those, and many more tomes, Talmudic, Biblical, mystical, secular and just plain oddball. But I always keep my eyes out for books in Yiddish (love the language), or on Churchill. Those are my top two.
This is WHY I love sharing book lists...we all may find books we then want to read! :-)
1)Marlborough: His Life and Times, by Winston Churchill
2)My Early Life, by Winston Churchill
3)Speaking For Themselves: The Personal Letters of Winston and Clementine Churchill, by Mary Soames
4)A Daughter's Tale: The Memoir of Winston and Clementine Churchill's Youngest Child, by Mary Soames
Have you read and or seen the movie made from Darkest Hour, by Anthony McCarten? I read the book loooooooooooooooong before the movie was made.
I have several other books that you also might like, but I think I may have overloaded you, already, by yesterday's and today's lists. And thus far, we have both read several several of the same books, that you have have listed, so I left them out of my lists.
If you care to, we can do lists to each other, in FRmail, about books on other topics, which we both might be interested in.
