Extractions: Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill was the son of Lord Randolph Churchill and Lady Randolph who was an American woman and the daughter of a millionaire. Churchill had one brother and the boys were cared for by a nanny that Churchill fondly referred to as "Woomany". In April 1888, Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill entered the Harrow School. It was believed that Churchill wrote to his mother and asked for permission to return home or to at least come for a visit. He had very little contact with his father. After becoming a Conservative Member of Parliament, Churchill held several high posts for the first part of the century. After the start of World War II, he held several titles including First Lord of the Admiralty, Prime Minister, and Prime Minister of Defense. He was a member of Parliament until 1964. In 1953, Queen Elizabeth II bestowed on Churchill the honor of the insignia with the Order of the Garter. After his official retirement, he wrote a History of the English- Speaking Peoples which joined his other works of literary volumes. Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill was also an accomplished painter and considered by many as very prolific with over five hundred paintings to his credit along with a few sculptures. Today, Tony Malone oversees his collection in London.

Extractions: Jump to: navigation search Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill, K.G. is best known for his role as Prime Minister of Britain during most of World War II , a position he attained largely because the British Conservative Party was suffering such a paucity of leaders at the time. Churchill seemed a plausible Prime MInister because he favored a vigorous armament program and was staunchly anti-Nazi positions in the years leading up to the war. He was not staunchly anti-facist however. He replaced Conservative Nevil Chamberlin who has taken a policy of appeasement towards Hitler (which, needless to say, turned out to be a bad move in 20/20 hindsight). Churchill was a precocious political figure, original in the Conservative Party , but then in the Liberal Party , and then back in the Conservative party again. He entered parliament at 26 in 1901 and secured his first cabinet post at the age of 35 (he was home secretary, which is most comparable to the Attorney General in U.S. politics, although Home Secretary has much broader responsibilities). He was in charge of the British Navy during World War I and is reponsible for the disastrous British decisison to use ANZAV troops to attack Gallipoli Ruling class elites are rarely held politically accountable for military disasters however and Chruchill later served as Chancellor of the Exchequer (roughly equivalent to Treasury Secretary) in the inter-war years, during which time he made a disastrous attempt to return to the gold standard. He also opposed self-rule for

Extractions: I Like Pigs Winston Churchill for high voice and piano I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down to us. Pigs treat us as equals. [ 3 pages, circa 1' 10" ] Winston Churchill Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill, KG, OM, CH, TD, FRS, PC, PC (Can) (1874-1965) was the British politician known chiefly for his leadership of the United Kingdom during World War II, as embodied in the famous picture of "V for victory." He was Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1940 to 1945 and again from 1951 to 1955, astatesman and orator, an officer in the British Army, a historian, a Nobel Prize-winning writer, and an artist as well. The electorate in war-weary Britain chose socialist Clement Atlee after Churchill's sterling leadership in that war, much in the same way that Charles Ives reminds us American voters did after World War I, in his text, " Nov. " which he set to music in his 1922 publication, 114 Songs , and which I have also set to music as ...that better things might be . Churchill's reputation as orator was well deserved, and earned by overcoming a childhood speech impediment, and his wit was famous. Repeated in many collections of witty sayings, this amusing text might remind us of Orwell's choosing pigs as a metaphor for politicians. Certainly others have as well.

Extractions: Early life of Winston Churchill Winston Churchill was born in Blenheim Palace in Woodstock, Oxfordshire; he arrived unexpectedly early when his mother was attending a ball and was born in the ladies' room. As was typical for upper-class boys at that time, he spent much of his childhood at boarding schools. He sat the entrance exam for Harrow School, but, famously, on confronting the Latin paper, carefully wrote the title, his name, and the number 1 followed by a dot, and could not think of anything else to write. He was accepted despite this, but placed in the bottom division where they were primarily taught English, at which he excelled. Today, this famous ancient public school offers an annual Churchill essay-prize on a subject chosen by the head of the English department. He was rarely visited by his mother (then known as Lady Randolph), whom he virtually worshipped, despite his letters begging her to either come or let his father permit him to come home. In later years, after Winston reached adulthood, he and his mother became closer, developing a kinship almost more like a brother and a sister than son and mother, coupled by a strong friendship.

Extractions: Churchill, Sir Winston (Leonard Spencer) 1874-1965 Statesman, historian, and biographer, whose five years of war leadership (1940-45) secured him a central place in modern British history. Churchill is widely considered the greatest political figure in 20th-century Britain. He won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1953. In was an open secret that he would have preferred the Nobel Peace Prize. Churchill's career was anything but predictable: he supported the Zionist movement in Palestine (1921-22), during the Abdication crisis (1926) he was loyal to Edward VIII, and during the 1945 election campaign he tried to brand Labour as a totalitarian party. 'Hitler knows that he will have to break us in this island or lose the war. If we can stand up to him, all Europe may be free and the life of the world may move forward into broad, sunlit uplands. But if we fail, the whole world, including the Unites States, including all that we have known and cared for, will sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age, made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science. Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves that, if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will say, " This was their finest hour."' (Churchill in his speech on June 18, 1940)
