<p><b>Sir Winston Churchill remains a British hero, lauded for his oratorical skill. He wrote histories, biographies, memoirs, and even a novel, while his journalism, speeches and broadcasts run to millions of words. </b><br><br>From 1940 he inspired and united the British people and guided their war effort. Behind the public figure, however, was a man of <b>vast humanity and enormous wit</b>. <br><br>His most famous speeches and sayings have passed into history but many of his aphorisms, <b>puns and jokes</b> are less well known. <br><br>This enchanting collection brings together <b>hundreds of his wittiest remarks</b> as a record of all that was best about this endearing, conceited, talented and wildly funny Englishman. <br><br><b><u>Also available in the series:</u></b><br><br>(9781782433651) <i>The Wicked Wit of Queen Elizabeth II</i>
