Winston Churchill in the House of Commons and some of the responses
from fellow MPs from the middle of 1940 to the death of Churchill
in 1965, speeches in war and peace, during the aggression Hitler
and others in the Second World War , and concentrates on foreign
affairs. The study studies the words of Churchill and the responses
to them and to his retirement and death. The book will appeal to
those interested in Churchill, freedom, tyranny, diplomacy, war and
conflict, democracy, politics, the 1940s, the Second World War, the
Cold War, Britain, the English-speaking world, Canada, the United
States, the British Empire and Commonwealth, Europe, France, Asia,
Germany, Japan, totalitarianism, Parliament and legislative
assemblies, rhetoric, language, style, speech-writing, oral and

debate between autocracy and the tyrannical totalitarian on the one
hand and democracy on the other is the debate of those times and
ours. The reader will find many parallels, some chilling, with our
own times. Churchill and his contemporaries have much to teach us.
We learn from Churchill in life and death, his words echoing in our
times.
