書籍簡介

最後的雄獅：丘吉爾傳1（1874-1932）

温斯頓·丘吉爾出生於1874年，大不列顛皇宮（Blenheim Palace）站在她權力的輝煌dian峯上。然而，幾年之內帝國將徘徊在災難的邊緣。在這種背景下，一個了不起的人開始建立自己的遺產。傳記作者威廉·曼徹斯特（William Manchester）的《最後的雄獅：丘吉爾傳1》揭示了一位冒險家、貴族、軍人和政治家温斯頓·丘吉爾前58年的生活，他勇敢的領導力引導了他黑暗的動盪時代的命運，他也被視為20世紀偉大的人物之一而被銘記。

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "An altogether absorbing popular biography . . . The heroic Churchill is in these pages, but so is the little boy writing forlorn letters to the father who all but ignored him."--People

When Winston Churchill was born in Blenheim Palace in 1874, Imperial Britain stood at the splendid pinnacle of her power. Yet within a few years the Empire would hover on the brink of catastrophe. Against this backdrop, a remarkable man began to build his legacy. From master biographer William Manchester, The Last Lion: Visions of Glory reveals the first fifty-eight years of the life of an adventurer, aristocrat, soldier, and statesman whose courageous leadership guided the destiny of his darkly troubled times--and who is remembered as one of the greatest figures of the twentieth century.

最後的雄獅：丘吉爾傳2（1932-1940）

《最後的雄獅：丘吉爾傳2（1932-1940）》記述了丘吉爾從58歲到臨危受命出任二戰時英國首相，中間過去的等待的8年。

威廉·曼徹斯特廣受好評的三部曲的中卷。在這本書中，温斯頓·丘吉爾展開了他的決定性戰役：不是反對希特勒的戰爭機器，而是反對他不情願的同胞。曼徹斯特認為，丘吉爾最輝煌的時刻是反對綏靖政策的艱苦戰鬥，而不僅僅是他在戰鬥中的領導能力。當丘吉爾警告反對日益增長的納粹威脅時，國會受到了嘲笑和蔑視，丘吉爾獨自站在那裏——只有在洶湧的風暴中被歷史證明是希望的燈塔。

“The best Churchill biography [for] this generation . . . Even readers who know the basic story will find much that is new.”—Newsweek

In this powerful biography, the middle volume of William Manchester’s critically acclaimed trilogy, Winston Churchill wages his defining campaign: not against Hitler’s war machine but against his own reluctant countrymen. Manchester contends that even more than his leadership in combat, Churchill’s finest hour was the uphill battle against appeasement. As Parliament received with jeers and scorn his warnings against the growing Nazi threat, Churchill stood alone—only to be vindicated by history as a beacon of hope amid the gathering storm.

最後的雄獅：丘吉爾傳3（1940-1965）

從1940年到1965年，《最後的雄獅：丘吉爾傳3（1940-1965）》開始於温斯頓·丘吉爾(Winston Churchill)成為首相後不久，當時英國獨自對抗了勢不可擋的納粹德國。威廉·曼徹斯特和保羅·裏德在幾十年的研究基礎上，用精彩的散文敍述了丘吉爾如何組織他的軍事反應和防禦，如何説服羅斯福支持這項事業，以及如何將幫助贏得戰爭的“永不投降”的精神擬人化。我們目睹了被趕出辦公室的丘吉爾，警告世界蘇聯的威脅即將到來。在他得意洋洋地回到唐寧街10號後，我們關注着他追求他的z終政策目標：與德懷特·艾森豪威爾總統和蘇聯領導人舉行峯會。z後，我們經歷了丘吉爾的z後幾年，當他面對生命的終結時，他帶着同樣的勇氣參加了每一場戰鬥。

Spanning the years 1940 to 1965, The Last Lion: Defender of the Realm begins shortly after Winston Churchill became prime minister—when Great Britain stood alone against the overwhelming might of Nazi Germany. In brilliant prose and informed by decades of research, William Manchester and Paul Reid recount how Churchill organized his nation’s military response and defense, convinced FDR to support the cause, and personified the “never surrender” ethos that helped win the war. We witness Churchill, driven from office, warning the world of the coming Soviet menace. And after his triumphant return to 10 Downing Street, we follow him as he pursues his final policy goal: a summit with President Dwight Eisenhower and Soviet leaders. And in the end, we experience Churchill’s last years, when he faces the end of his life with the same courage he brought to every battle he ever fought.
