Winston Churchill was one of the most extraordinary leaders of the
twentieth century. What enabled him to stand so steadfastly when
all those around him seemed to turn back in fear? What enabled him
to inspire whole nations to endure the unendurable and to achieve
the unachievable when all those around him had already surrendered
all hope? The Character and Greatness of Winston Churchill is a
remarkable study of Churchill’s leadership skill and answers
these questions and more. The result is an account that is no less
inspiring today than it was three-quarters of a century ago when
the great man’s shadow fell large across the world stage.
According to Henry Kissinger, "Our age finds it difficult to come
to grips with Churchill. The political leaders with whom we are
familiar generally aspire to be superstars rather than heroes. The
distinction is crucial. Superstars strive for approbation; heroes
walk alone. Superstars crave consensus; heroes define themselves by
the … future they see it as their task to bring about. Superstars
seek success in a technique for eliciting support; heroes pursue
success as the outgrowth of their inner values." Winston Churchill
was a hero.
