Citadel of the Heart by John Pearson

Citadel of the Heart by John Pearson

Winston Churchill's family was always the private "citadel of the heart", a source of pride and vital influence, shaping his all-important sense of destiny. But the citadel was flawed - as if each new generation of this curious family passed on to the next a curse bringing tragedy and scandal. This book looks at the Churchill family. At least seven of Churchill's ancestors suffered from chronic depression and his father died insane. Two of his children were flamboyantly alcoholic and another committed suicide, his adored wife, Clementine, suffered long periods of acute nervous tension and on at least one occasion she considered leaving him.
