Published by Phoenix , 2020, softcover, illustrated, index, 354 pages, condition: fair.

Access to previously unpublished papers and closed archives mean this that this book includes some startling revelations on some very eminent figures. There is a sharp polemical edge to each of the eight self-contained portraits from this talented historian and journalist.

An interesting analysis of some of the figures who lived and occasionally interacted with Winston Churchill. Andrew Roberts is, in my view, a decisive and painstakingly thorough historian whose work is both engaging and perceptive. I particularly enjoyed the section which exposed Mountbatten, a ruthlessly ambitious and brilliant self publicist, as an incompetent, deeply selfish, vain and dishonest man. He proved to be unforgivably careless with other peoples lives and was wholly undeserving of the stratospheric career and status he enjoyed. Equally, the oleaginous historian and hypocrite A C Bryant is forensically exposed as the toadying fascist he was. Overall an interesting analysis of some of Churchills prominent contemporaries and the attitudes they displayed during such a critical period of Britains history.
