Churchill by Roy Jenkins

Tom Jackson loves his wife and babies, no doubt about it But he also realizes that there is much he needs to learn about being the kind of husband and father that he needs to be. Then one night a few remarks by a pastor spark a desire and a determination to gain true wisdom. Little does Tom know how this decision will change his life. Linda Preston spent thirty-seven years in high school and community college classrooms loving teaching English. However, she considers her most challenging and rewarding adventure was that of wife and mother. In addition to teaching, writing, and parenting, she has enjoyed speaking at women's conferences and retreats. Now retired, she and her husband live in Twin Falls, Idaho, where they are active in their church and community.

Elected to Parliament as a Labour member in 1948, Jenkins (1920- 2003) served in several major posts in Harold Wilson's First Government and as Home Secretary from 1965-1967. In 1987, Jenkins was elected to succeed Harold Macmillan as Chancellor of the University of Oxford following the latter's death, a position he held until his death. Jenkins grew to political maturity during the twilight of a great age of British parliamentary democracy. As much as Churchill, though in quite a different way, Jenkins has been from the cradle a creature of the system that nurtured Palmerston and Disraeli, Gladstone, Asquith and Lloyd George.
