Never Give In: The Extraordinary Character of Winston Churchill
by Stephen Mansfield Author
Winston Churchill was one of the most extraordinary leaders of the twentieth century. What enabled him to see so clearly when those around him seemed to be so blind? What allowed him to stand so steadfastly when those around him seemed to turn back in fear? In this remarkable look at Churchill's leadership skills, Stephen Mansfield answers these questions and more.
