Long before his finest hour as Britain's wartime leader, Winston
Churchill emerged on the world stage as a brazen foreign
correspondent, covering wars of empire in Cuba, India, the Sudan,
and South Africa.In those far-flung corners of the world, reporting
from the front lines between 1895 and 1900, Churchill mastered his
celebrated command of language and formed strong opinions about
war. He thought little of his own personal safety, so convinced was
he of his destiny, jumping at any chance to be where bullets flew
and canons roared. "I have faith in my star- that I am intended to
do something in the world," he wrote to his mother at the age of
twenty-three before heading into battle.Based on his private
letters and war reportage, Winston Churchill Reporting intertwines
young Winston's daring exploits in combat, adventures in distant
corners of the globe, and rise as a major literary talent-
experiences that shaped the world leader he was to become.
