A History of the English-Speaking Peoples. Based on the Text of 'A History of the English-Speaking Peoples' by Sir Winston Churchill published by Cassell. [Purnell Collected Edition]. SPLENDID SET IN PUBLISHER'S CLOTH

Published by Purnell,1971, hardcovers, 23 volumes, complete, illustrated, each volume measures 22.4 cms x 30.6 cms, condition; as new.

First Edition, numerous photographs, illustrations and maps throughout; red faux-morocco boards, upper boards blocked in lion in gilt, gilt backs, terracotta endpapers, a near fine set.

The final form of Purnell's pioneering and mammoth partwork, the result of several years of preparation, with numerous contributors working to the editorial board comprising Mortimer Wheeler, Hugh Trevor-Roper and A.J.P. Tayor - three of the most eminent historians of the period. The partwork was issued originally in 112 weekly parts intended to be housed in seven optional and separately issued branded binders. Consequently it required considerable time, effort and motivation to acquire and bind a complete set. This final version is arguably the most accessible edition, comprising twenty-three compact and rather more manageable volumes.

Winston Churchill was a prolific writer. His output included a novel,'Savrola', two biographies, memoirs, histories, and press articles.

His most famous works were , 'The Second World War', and  'A History of the English-Speaking Peoples'.

In recognition of his "mastery of historical and biographical description" and oratorial output, Churchill received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1953.
