"In Churchill Speaks, Robert Rhodes James presents 300 of Winston Churchill's speeches, out of his eight-volume collection of speeches. He has retained all the high points of Churchill's long career as a speechmaker - from his first appearance before the Primrose League in 1897 during the Diamond Jubilee of Victoria's reign, through both world wars, the Cold War, and the dismantling of the British Empire, all the way to Churchill's acceptance of honorary American citizenship in 1963. The keenness of Churchill's mind, the depth of his patriotism, and the artistry of his rhetorical style are apparent in every selection." --
