Winston S. Churchill Great Contemporaries Book from The Reprint Society 1941

The First Edition is selling Winston S. Churchill’s Great Contemporaries published by The Reprint Society just 4 years after the UK First Edition book, Winston Churchill describes this book in the Preface as follows:

“These essays on Great Men of our age have been written by me at intervals during the last eight years.  Although each is self-contained, they throw, from various angles, a light upon the main course of the events through which we have lived.  I hope they will be found to illustrate some of its less well-known aspects.  Taken together they should present not only the actors but the scene.  In their sequence they may perhaps be the stepping-stones of historical narrative.”

- Winston S. Churchill, 1937
