All in all, rather badly done. Well researched, but his focus couldn't have been more limp-wristed and pathetic.

He wrote this book to answer the question, "Did Churchill save England?" The answer, if you were wondering, is yes. He saved not only England, but the world. If it weren't for Churchill, you wouldn't even exist. And neither would puppies or kittens or butterflies or ice cream.

He wrote this book to answer the question, "Did Churchill save England?" The answer, if you were wondering, is yes. He saved not only England, but the world. If it weren't for Churchill, you wouldn't even exist. And neither would puppies or kittens or butterflies or ice cream. I was hoping to hear about the man, or at least some funny quotes from the legend. I got very little of either. I found out a few interesting facts, such as the fact that he took up painting and was good at it--about 500 of his paintings survive--and that--get this--he had between eight and ten million words in print by the time he died. Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire was absolutely dwarfed by his account of the first world war: 1,100,000 words to 2,050,000. The last Harry Potter book, by comparison, has fewer than 200,000, and that's just cause the editors decided to sit back, drink gin and practice saying, "why yes, I am the editor of the most successful books in the civilized world" in front of a mirror instead of actually editing the book. Hardcovers are more expensive.

But Churchill comes across looking kinda like a pansy by this guy's account. A pansy is the last thing he was: he was the one who specifically ordered the bombing of Dresden. He was the one who brutally suppressed the Irish, causing more civilian casualties than anyone seems likely to admit. He was a violent, brutal, bulldog of a man, but this author spends half the book explaining that though Churchill was always smoking a cigar, he never inhaled. Seriously? Why on earth would we care? I was looking for Churchill: the "blood, toil, tears and sweat" Churchill, the "never has so much been owed by so many to so few," the Churchill that almost singlehandedly built up both the British navy and RAF, the one that was so determined to win that he would have nuked every city between Berlin and Belfast if he'd had the bombs, the one that said "If Hitler invaded Hell, I would make at least a favourable reference to the devil in the House of Commons."

And, if our author was too concerned with explaining how he watered down his whiskey so he didn't actually drink as much as it seemed, too concerned lest our freshly whitewashed hero(?) (he got plenty of exercise) be human, then he could at least have given us some comedy. I mention Churchill to the most uneducated person--to the governmentally schooled among us--and even he will start fumbling around with, "'you may be drunk, but I'm...' no, wait... 'Madam, you're ugly, but I'm Winston...' no..." Churchill was hilarious, quick witted and could be downright vicious with his comebacks, but we're given so little of that in this book that I would never have guessed he had a sense of humour at all (yes, I spell it with a "u", just like honour and valour and all those others. I'd spell dog with a "u" if it wasn't my pastor's name). So, the book was simply boring. I'd hoped for better.

But, if you're more interested in Churchill's policy than his person, in his chronology than his character, this book is well researched, and I have no doubt--no doubt--that it's accurate. A book this boring simply has to be. (less)

12/30/2012: How does one write a biography of such an important historical figure in 175 pages? Very carefully! Johnson is a brilliant writer, almost a poet in his ability to compress so much information into so few words. His prose is clear, concise, easy to follow, yet packed with names, dates, opinions. Not having read the next longest biography of Churchill (I think many of them run to almost a thousand pages), I can only imagine how hard Johnson must have worked to sort through what to incl...more

My manager from the summer left me with that thought after a chat we had one afternoon over cocktails. We were on a patio overlooking the Chicago River and he was telling me stories about his very odd career trajectory. The only commonality among his various jobs, including stints as a speechwriter in Washington and a guru at several technology companies, was their connection to his two underlying passions: writing and technology. But he wanted to focus on one of those passions that day. Regardless of whether writing was part of his job description or not, he explained that he continues to write whenever possible and encouraged me to do the same.

Someone had once given him the advice he gave me: “If you want to learn, write.” I think the corollary should be: “If you want to learn about yourself, write.” The act of capturing your thoughts and arguments in a static form forces you to consider your positions and justifications carefully. It also is likely you will make mistakes and be embarrassed sometimes, as people will be able to easily digest and respond to you. Even this type of failure allows your thoughts to mature, providing growth in an obvious, if sometimes painful, way.

Winston Churchill wrote. A lot. He documented his life religiously and in doing so I believe he must have learned enough about himself to be incredibly confident in what he believed. He was extremely comfortable with himself and the seeming contradictions in his life. He was extremely competitive and yet he was always quick to bow to public opinion when the votes were counted against him. He made a career out of following wars and describing them in poetic fashion, but was acutely aware of the horrors they entailed. He was early and fiercely outspoken about the dangers of the Germans and one of the few voices sympathetic to those same people after the war was over.

Given all this, one might mistake Churchill as a “flip-flopper”, especially given his journey through the various political parties of the time. However, the author credits his deeper convictions to the people and parliament of England as the driving force behind these surface-level swings. It was also likely due to the fact that he put the same energy documenting his life as he did living it. His high-energy, high-relaxation lifestyle allowed him to pour time into the things that mattered to him. Fortunately for us, these included not simply forming opinions about wartime government, but expressing and enacting them… and meticulously recording them.

If I take away one thing about leadership from Churchill’s story, it’s that my life outside the workplace can and should shape and inform my leadership in the workplace. Given that, I need to make every effort to ensure that those interests stretch and grow my opinions and self-awareness.

I don't plan to finish this book. I was looking for something that would give me insight into the life of Winston Churchill.

Much of what is in this book was already covered in my history classes from elementary school through graduate school.

That is not to say that it is not well executed. That deserves its own sentence. The style is weak, and leaves the reader wanting more in terms of content, style, and prose. One simply does not "report" about the greatest oratory of the 20th century.

Johnson wrote this book when he was 81 years old which may explain why it's so short, only 168 pages. But Johnson has a magical way of capturing the salient features of even a complex life like Churchill's.

Johnson, the conservative historian, has written a brief but entertaining and authoritative biography of the great British politician (and writer, painter, and builder, though only the first of those three sidelines challenged his political prowess).

This short, 181-page volume received (what I think is) only a so-so review at Slate.com, and not much better elsewhere. I think that is unfortunate. After reading the book, I now understand the reviewers' real objection: it's too short (as if they were trying to say "too short on facts" as opposed to errors of fact). I agree: the book is way too short. On nearly every page there was an event or assertion about which I wanted the author to insert a chapter's worth of text so that I could learn the whole, complete, and probably fascinating story. This book could easily have been several thousand pages and multiple volumes, but the author, who met Winston Churchill, instead wrote a very different kind of book. It reads easily, as if he were speaking at a lecture, not at all like a typical history or autobiography. It was hard to put down, and I consumed it in just two sittings.

One thing that makes this account different is that the author, although young at the time, was actually there at the time in England and knew or worked with most of the principals mentioned.

As with many recently-published books based on research into newly-available (read: recently-released) World War II US and UK Government archive material, new tidbits are revealed and old misstatements of (supposedly accepted) facts corrected. For example, many existing biographies of Churchill portray him as always in financial trouble. And that is true to an extent, but not because of his spendthrift habits as others have claimed. Churchill did spend an enormous amount of money, but he earned as astonishing amount that enabled him to do so. Instead, his problem with money derived mostly from failed investments, but there were only two such big events and one of them was the worldwide stock market crash that caught everybody off guard. He was rescued by friends, as has been documented, but promptly made enough money by his writing to make up for it.

The story behind the story in this intentionally-brief biography consists of justification of the author's assertion that Churchill was the towering figure of the 20th century, and, as Churchill himself asserted to President Roosevelt about things that were afoot, that he would be remembered and talked about for as long as the English language survived. Johnson's thesis is that the actual importance and most valuable consequences of Churchill's actions while in and out of Government have remained unrecognized, and that they prepared both the UK and its eventual ally, the US, together win both World Wars.

For example, in July 1917, Churchill was made Minister of Munitions by Lloyd George. Before, there was stalemate in the trenches because the British troops didn't have the weapons and ammunition that _they_ wanted. Churchill reorganized the ministry, visited the troops, learned what _they_ wanted and within a year the British army was better supplied than either the French or German army. The resulting imbalance resulted in literal slaughter of the German divisions that attacked in March 1918; for the first time, the Germans suffered enormous casualties, and literally began to bleed to death, which has been long acknowledged as the reason Germany sought an armistice in November 1918. Churchill was also responsible for seeing that the newly-arrived American forces were never short of munitions.

In evaluating Churchill's contribution to winning World War II, Johnson notes that it was Churchill's insistence to maintain the even then-despised and discounted bombing campaign against Germany, which cost so many lives, particularly American, that enabled the Eastern front (with Russia) not to become a stalemate, thus enabling Russia to cripple the German Army (using American Lend-Lease supplies), which (if you accept the argument as it currently seems to be in vogue) was essentially solely responsible for the Allied forces being able to gain a foothold in Normandy, France on D-Day. ["... without the British bombing these assets would otherwise have gone to the eastern front. As a result the Germans lost the air war there: by mid-1943, their air superiority had disappeared, and this was a key factor in their losing the ground war, too. These facts tend to be forgotten by those who asset that it was Russia which really defeated Nazi Germany. Without Churchill's bombing campaign, the eastern front would have become a stalemate."]

Consequences of consequences begin to get tenuous, as with all of history, but Johnson makes his case eloquently, albeit with unusual brevity.

If you like to read about World War II or Winston Churchill, this is a wonderful book, not to be missed. Johnson makes the case well that people will still be writing and thinking about Churchill in a thousand years. (less)

I guess it's not fair to fault this for being sketchy when I picked it for its length. Given the number of pages (166), Johnson did a reasonable job of describing Churchill's life and career. So, this is more life an "introduction" to Churchill than anything else.
