Sir Winston Churchill was not only a beloved political statesman, but also an avid historian. Culled from his greater work, A History of the English Speaking People, this fascinating narrative also includes noteworthy speeches and essays on 20th-century America. While not necessarily a 'text' on U.S. history, it provides keen observations and a unique perspective on topics from the Puritans to American cuisine. 454 pages, softcover from Modern Library.
