Michael O'Mara Books Ltd The Wicked Wit Of Winston Churchill

Sir Winston Churchill remains a British hero, lauded for his oratorical skill.He wrote histories, biographies, memoirs, and even a novel, while his journalism, speeches and broadcasts run to millions of words. From 1940 he inspired and united the British people and guided their war effort.Behind the public figure, however, was a man of vast humanity and enormous wit.His most famous speeches and sayings have passed into history but many of his aphorisms, puns and jokes are less well-known.This enchanting collection brings together hundreds of his wittiest remarks as a record of all that was best about this endearing, conceited, talented and wildly funny Englishman.
