There never was a Churchill from John of Marlborough down who had
either morals or principles', so said Gladstone. From the First
Duke of Marlborough - soldier of genius, restless empire-builder
and cuckolder of Charles II - onwards, the Churchills have been
politicians, gamblers and profligates, heroes and womanisers. The
Churchills is a richly layered portrait of an extraordinary set of
men and women - grandly ambitious, regularly impecunious,
impulsive, arrogant and brave. And towering above the Churchill
clan is the figure of Winston - his failures and his triumphs shown
in a new and revealing context - ultimately our 'greatest Briton'.
