Lord Randolph Churchill. 2 vols.

This is a rare or used book from the Berkelouw Rare Books Department.

London: Macmillan and Co. 1906. 8vo. Orig. cloth. Gilt. With frontisps. and 16 full-page plates. Uncut. Toning on end-papers and light foxing throughout otherwise a good complete set of the rare 1st ed. NOTE: Churchill's masterful biography of his father is more than an exercise in filial piety or a defense of Lord Randolph's provocative stand on Home Rule. It is a superb political history of the late Victorian era told with verve and keen insight into the motives of the major players.
