Churchill – Review

The best way for a kid to become a leader is to find opportunities to guide others. This can be achieved through coaching, tutoring, counseling, and assisting younger children.

Along the way, an aspiring leader must observe and spend time with leaders. One way to do this is to read about them. Reading great biographies is not only enjoyable, but it is rarely time wasted. They expand one’s knowledge, vision, and self-awareness. And they introduce one to new worlds, virtues, and opportunities.

In difficult times, one can think back on biographies read for inspiration, motivation, and wisdom.

A high school student can benefit from a diverse range of individuals, including men, women, missionaries, business tycoons, scientists, musicians, preachers, and politicians.

Some leaders, like Winston Churchill, are not only worth reading, but worth reading one’s whole life, for their lives were fascinating, and the lessons are numerous and profound.

Fair Use

Winston Churchill, a war correspondent, war hero, grandson of a Duke, brilliant writer and speaker, member of Parliament, Prime Minister during and after World War II, savior of Western Civilization, gardener, brick layer, painter, historian, husband, and father. He’s hard to beat.

Over 1,000 books have been written about him specifically. The late Paul Johnson’s Churchill is arguably the best single-volume biography of his life. Superbly written, the book introduces the life and times of a great man who had uncommon courage.
