Why read it?
1 author picked Churchill as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I like that this book makes Winston Churchill’s powerful oratory style and poetic words easily accessible. Churchill was a master at speaking in a way that ignited the passion of others and focused them on common goals.
To be able to see and study those words really provides insights into how to shape the way others think about the world. It also opens the door to many historical issues that often get buried in some of the grander narratives about Churchill’s time.
From Luke's list on how ideas are turned into actions.
