chasing Churchill

The travels of Winston Churchill

 

Celia sandys

 

'Celia Sandys has researched her grandfather's time in South Mrica more thoroughly than anyone else. The story of Churchill's capture by the Boers is thrilling and heroic. This is a fascinating story, told with a rare combination of insight, thoroughness and charm' Alan Judd, Sunday Telegraph

'This excellent book shows how all-consuming was Churchill's lust for fame, glory and medals. ..A well-researched and compelling adventure story, this well-written, fast-moving narrative is a fine portrait of a young man in a hurry, albeit one who cut corners to reach his glorious destination' Andrew Roberts, Literary Review

'A groundbreaking book -surprisingly the first to really get to grips with this period of Churchill's life apart from his own. ..excitingly told' Giles Foden, Guardian

'A cracking good yarn. ..an absorbing, down-to-earth read' Elizabeth Clarke, Independent on Sunday

'Throughout she displays a Churchillian way with prose: clear, concise and highly readable' Stephen Pritchard, Observer
