The Churchill Documents, Volume 23: Never Flinch, Never Weary, November 1951 to February 1965

This 23rd volume of documents in the official biography of Winston Churchill is the last step in a journey that began 57 years ago, having been prepared for decades earlier. One will find in this volume a letter that Churchill wrote to his son Randolph in 1960: "I think that your biography of Derby is a remarkable work, and I should be happy that you should write my official biography when the time comes." Here Churchill finalizes a suggestion he had made years earlier: his son Randolph was to be his official biographer.
