«The Last Lion: Winston Spencer Churchill: Alone, 1932-1940» is the biography by William Manchester (Bantam, paperback, 800 pages, in English).
The book follows Churchill between 1932 and 1940, when he warned of the Nazi danger and opposed British appeasement policy. Manchester argues that his great moment was not wartime leadership, but his solitary struggle against his country's complacency, while Parliament met his warnings with mockery and history would ultimately prove him right.
Second volume of the The Last Lion trilogy; English edition published in 1989.
A work for readers of political biographies and twentieth-century history, especially the interwar years and the Second World War.
