Dark Lady by Charles Higham

Jennie Jerome was a controversial American society girl and mother of Britain's most revered statesman, Winston Churchill.

Dark Lady, like all of Charles Higham's biographies, is vivacious, sensational and revelatoryJennie Churchill emerges as an intensely individual and passionate figure, and the book is indispensable reading for a full and proper understanding of her great son, Winston. -- Simon Callow, actor, author and TV presenter
