Interesting biography of the Churchill family, including personal tidbits not usually found in histories. For example, Winston's father died of syphilis, after which his mother remarried twice, both times to men younger than Winston. Winston and his brother were rare in the family as men who married once, remained faithful to their wives, and raised families. Other family members were eccentric, to say the least. A good read; more interesting than I expected.
