I ord och gärning : Winston Churchill i urval

Winston S. Churchill var känd skribent när han gav sig in på den politiska banan. Här tog han sin plats i historien genom sina gärningar, men orden förblev hans verktyg och kan knappast skiljas från hans politiska insats. Ofta stod Churchill själv i centrum för sina skrifter, som därför inte sällan kan läsas som självbiografiska. Samtidigt skänker hans utblick historiska och filosofiska insikter och formulerar en närmast praktisk konservatism.

I I ord och gärning skildras Nobelpristagaren i litteratur, statsmannen och människan Churchill genom sina egna ord. Urval och introduktioner till texterna av Svante Nordin, professor i idé- och lärdomshistoria vid Lunds universitet.

Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill, politician and writer, as prime minister from 1940 to 1945 and from 1951 to 1955 led Great Britain, published several works, including The Second World War from 1948 to 1953, and then won the Nobel Prize for literature.

William Maxwell Aitken, first baron Beaverbrook, held many cabinet positions during the 1940s as a confidant of Churchill.

Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill, KG, OM, CH, TD, FRS, PC (Can), served the United Kingdom again. A noted statesman, orator and strategist, Churchill also served as an officer in the Army. This prolific author "for his mastery of historical and biographical description as well as for brilliant oratory in defending exalted human values."

Out of respect for Winston_Churchill, the well-known American author, Winston S. Churchill offered to use his middle initial as an author.
