Praise for Churchill by Paul Johnson: "Johnson . . . give[s] the reader the definite sense of having known Churchill, or at least of having hung out with him for a bit . . . Churchill lets you spend some time in the man's company, and who wouldn't want that?"
--New York Times Book Review "Johnson's distillation of life lessons from Churchill's stories career [is written in] . . . vivid prose and [with] consistent intelligence and urbanity."
--Jon Meacham, Slate.com "[If] you appreciate clarity, authority, and verve in historical writing, you will understand why I gulped down [Churchill] and now declare it the most exciting biography I read in 2009."
--Jesse Kornbluth, Huffington Post "Johnson clearly shares and revels in Churchill's generosity of spirit and limitless intellectual energy. He has produced a book that is a joy--and a worthy tribute to both of them."
--Washington Times "You read Johnson to be provoked and entertained, and on both these scores his biography, like its subject, succeeds wonderfully."
--The American Conservative "With deft narrative skill and keen insight, Johnson masterfully sketches the phases of Churchill's life . . . Along the way, Johnson gives us wonderful insights into Churchill's character . . . Rich with anecdote and quotation, Paul Johnson's Churchill illustrates the man's humor, resilience, courage, and eccentricity as no other biography before."
--National Review "Paul Johnson is the most celebrated and best-loved British historian in America."
--Wall Street Journal
