    Churchill: Walking with Destiny
    by Andrew Roberts
    1, pages
    Viking
    Published: October

    Andrew Roberts&#;s biography &#;Churchill: Walking with Destiny&#; was published in the fall of and quickly became a bestseller in both the US and UK. Roberts is an award-winning British author and journalist who has written more than a dozen books including &#;Napoleon: A Life&#; (which inspired a BBC tv series), &#;The Storm of War: A New History of the Second World War&#; and &#;House of Windsor.&#;

    Within weeks of its release this book was hailed as one of the very best single-volume biographies of Winston Churchill ever published. Because this is the first biography of Churchill I&#;ve read, I am unable to offer an opinion on the matter. What is clear to me, however, is that Roberts&#;s biography of Churchill is magisterial, impressively thorough and keenly perceptive. It also benefits from the author&#;s access to personal papers and notes unavailable to previous biographers of Churchill.

    Anyone familiar with Winston Churchill&#;s life will appreciate the difficulty inherent in compressing his remarkably eventful nine decades into a single volume.  But Roberts seems to have accomplished the task with authority, clarity and precision.
