Jennie Churchill by Anne Sebba

Jennie Churchill by Anne Sebba

The classic biography of Winston Churchill's American Mother

Sharp and intelligent.. An immensely enjoyable book. [Sebba's] prose is as smooth and elegant as expensive cashmere; it reads like a novel * Literary Review *
Retrieving Jennie Churchill in sparkling three dimensions... Sebba's biography does much to put flesh on the bones of a subject who has been reduced to a cipher for American brashness * Daily Telegraph *
