Paul Reid: "The Last Lion: Winston Spencer Churchill: Defender of the Realm, 1940-1965"

Summary: <p>The works of historian William Manchester included two enormously popular biographies of Winston Churchill: "The Last Lion", Volumes I and II. They were published in the 1980s and chronicled Churchill's life up until World War II. Manchester spent a number of years doing the research for the next installment, but his health began to fail. Before he died in 2004 he asked his friend, journalist Paul Reid, to complete the task. Now, nearly two decades later, this third and final volume has been published. It details Churchill's pivotal role during World War II and his post-government years. Join Diane for a conversation with biographer Paul Reid about the life of Winston Churchill.</p>
