Note: This a reprint of the two-volume edition which is an entirely new setting (not merely a rearrangement) of the original four-volume edition of 1933-34. It is unabridged and retains all the maps and plans of the first edition, but the illustrations are reduced. Included are 2 portrait frontispieces, 14 facsimiles and 196 maps and plans (a number double-page) in the text. Marlborough His Life and Times is a panegyric biography written by Winston Churchill about John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough. Churchill was a lineal descendant of the duke. Churchill had conceived the idea of writing the book by 1929, when the conservative defeat in the general election meant that he was no longer a government minister. A wonderful set in original dust jackets.
