Lloyd George

by Frank Dilnot

Mr. Lloyd George gets a grip on those who read about him, but his personality is far more powerful and fascinating to those who have known the man himself, known him during the time his genius has been forcing him to eminence. He does not fill the eye as a sanctified hero should; he is too vitally human, too affectionate, too bitter, and he has, moreover, springs of humor which bubble up continually.

[Mick Maye · Rating 4 out of 5]

Short brief book which gives a thorough coverage of Lloyd George before his rise to the Prime Ministership. It is fairly obvious the author is a disciple of Lloyd George and sees most of the things in his life in a rose coloured view, however it provided me with information and background on this remarkable man. The book ends basically once he becomes Prime Minister and does not really cover his conflicts with Haig.

Interesting, but definitely written in a long-gone style and by a true fan of Lloyd George.
