Winston Churchill's leadership and tireless commitment to standing up to Hitler, and fighting the Second World War until Nazism was defeated, have made him an inspiration to millions over the decades and led him to be voted the "greatest briton". Churchill at War combines Sir Martin Gilbert's authoritative text with remarkable photographs from the archives of IWM (Imperial War Museums) to create a revealing portrait of Churchill throughout the Second World War, during his five years as Prime Minister, at home and abroad, amid scenes of bombardment, on his many travels, at the conference table in the war zones.
