About this book

The Splendid and the Vile is a riveting account of Winston Churchill’s first year as Britain’s Prime Minister during the tumultuous period of the Blitz, when the German forces were relentlessly bombing Britain. The book offers a close-up view of Churchill’s life during this period, including his interactions with his family and his inner circle of advisors. It also explores the lives of his wife Clementine, their youngest daughter Mary, their son Randolph, Randolph’s unhappy wife Pamela, and Pamela’s secret American lover.

Erik Larson

Larson builds narrative history by braiding two stories that share a place and a moment. The Devil in the White City sets the 1893 Chicago world's fair against a serial killer working a few streets away. Dead Wake follows the Lusitania and the submarine that sank it.
