温斯顿·丘吉尔出生于1874年，大不列颠皇宫（Blenheim Palace）站在她权力的辉煌dian峰上。然而，几年之内帝国将徘徊在灾难的边缘。在这种背景下，一个了不起的人开始建立自己的遗产。传记作者威廉·曼彻斯特（William Manchester）的《最后的雄狮：丘吉尔传1》揭示了一位冒险家、贵族、军人和政治家温斯顿·丘吉尔前58年的生活，他勇敢的领导力引导了他黑暗的动荡时代的命运，他也被视为20世纪伟大的人物之一而被铭记。

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "An altogether absorbing popular biography . . . The heroic Churchill is in these pages, but so is the little boy writing forlorn letters to the father who all but ignored him."--People

When Winston Churchill was born in Blenheim Palace in 1874, Imperial Britain stood at the splendid pinnacle of her power. Yet within a few years the Empire would hover on the brink of catastrophe. Against this backdrop, a remarkable man began to build his legacy. From master biographer William Manchester, The Last Lion: Visions of Glory reveals the first fifty-eight years of the life of an adventurer, aristocrat, soldier, and statesman whose courageous leadership guided the destiny of his darkly troubled times--and who is remembered as one of the greatest figures of the twentieth century.

最后的雄狮：丘吉尔传2（1932-1940）

《最后的雄狮：丘吉尔传2（1932-1940）》记述了丘吉尔从58岁到临危受命出任二战时英国首相，中间过去的等待的8年。

威廉·曼彻斯特广受好评的三部曲的中卷。在这本书中，温斯顿·丘吉尔展开了他的决定性战役：不是反对希特勒的战争机器，而是反对他不情愿的同胞。曼彻斯特认为，丘吉尔最辉煌的时刻是反对绥靖政策的艰苦战斗，而不仅仅是他在战斗中的领导能力。当丘吉尔警告反对日益增长的纳粹威胁时，国会受到了嘲笑和蔑视，丘吉尔独自站在那里——只有在汹涌的风暴中被历史证明是希望的灯塔。

“The best Churchill biography [for] this generation . . . Even readers who know the basic story will find much that is new.”—Newsweek

In this powerful biography, the middle volume of William Manchester’s critically acclaimed trilogy, Winston Churchill wages his defining campaign: not against Hitler’s war machine but against his own reluctant countrymen. Manchester contends that even more than his leadership in combat, Churchill’s finest hour was the uphill battle against appeasement. As Parliament received with jeers and scorn his warnings against the growing Nazi threat, Churchill stood alone—only to be vindicated by history as a beacon of hope amid the gathering storm.

最后的雄狮：丘吉尔传3（1940-1965）

从1940年到1965年，《最后的雄狮：丘吉尔传3（1940-1965）》开始于温斯顿·丘吉尔(Winston Churchill)成为首相后不久，当时英国独自对抗了势不可挡的纳粹德国。威廉·曼彻斯特和保罗·里德在几十年的研究基础上，用精彩的散文叙述了丘吉尔如何组织他的军事反应和防御，如何说服罗斯福支持这项事业，以及如何将帮助赢得战争的“永不投降”的精神拟人化。我们目睹了被赶出办公室的丘吉尔，警告世界苏联的威胁即将到来。在他得意洋洋地回到唐宁街10号后，我们关注着他追求他的z终政策目标：与德怀特·艾森豪威尔总统和苏联领导人举行峰会。z后，我们经历了丘吉尔的z后几年，当他面对生命的终结时，他带着同样的勇气参加了每一场战斗。

Spanning the years 1940 to 1965, The Last Lion: Defender of the Realm begins shortly after Winston Churchill became prime minister—when Great Britain stood alone against the overwhelming might of Nazi Germany. In brilliant prose and informed by decades of research, William Manchester and Paul Reid recount how Churchill organized his nation’s military response and defense, convinced FDR to support the cause, and personified the “never surrender” ethos that helped win the war. We witness Churchill, driven from office, warning the world of the coming Soviet menace. And after his triumphant return to 10 Downing Street, we follow him as he pursues his final policy goal: a summit with President Dwight Eisenhower and Soviet leaders. And in the end, we experience Churchill’s last years, when he faces the end of his life with the same courage he brought to every battle he ever fought.
