About the book

"Great Contemporaries is a collection of 25 essays about eminent personalities, whom Churchill evaluates with humour and understanding. These characters range from the good to the evil, the foolish to the wise, including political heavyweights (Balfour, Hitler, Trotsky, Roosevelt, Asquith); military commanders (General Haig, Lawrence of Arabia) and non-political Britons (Baden-Powell, King George V). With hindsight this book implies Churchill's absorption of these lessons in leadership and greatness, ready for the moment when he himself was to step forward as a great leader in his own right."--Bloomsbury Publishing.
