520 | _aChurchill used primary sources to masterful effect, quoting directly from a range of documents, from Caesar's invasions of Britain to the beginning of the First World War, to provide valuable insights into those figures who played a leading role in British history. In the last of his epic four-volume account, Churchill begins at the end of the Napoleonic Wars and ends with the Boer War of 1902. Here, Churchill presents his case for the importance of English-speaking peoples in world history and the dissemination of economic and political ideas that have changed the world. | ||
