NOTES
Winston S. Churchill's A History of the English Speaking Peoples is the literary masterwork of the twentieth century's greatest historical figure. This volume begins with Marlborough's victory at Blenheim in 1704 and ends with Wellington's defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo in 1815, as Churchill recounts Britain's rise to world leadership over the course of the eighteenth century. Churchill provides an excellent illustration of his unique literary voice, together with an introduction to his thoughts on the forces that shape human affairs
