The Churchills

From the 1st Duke of Marlborough - restless empire-builder and cuckolder of Charles II - to Winston Churchill, our 'greatest Briton', the Churchills have been politicians, gamblers and profligates, heroes and womanisers. In this gripping story Mary Lovell charts triumphant political and military campaigns; the construction of great houses; quiet, domestic tragedies; disastrous marriages; and profoundly happy ones, such as Winston's to Clementine Hozier.
