For fans of Darkest Hour and Dunkirk, discover the story of Walter
H. Thompson, the man who saved Winston Churchill's life more than
once. Walter H. Thompson was Churchill's bodyguard from 1921 until
1945, brought back from retirement at the outbreak of war. Tom
Hickman's authorised biography draws heavily on extracts from a
manuscript recently discovered by his great-niece, in which
Thompson gives a unique insider's account of a number of occasions
on which Churchill's life was put seriously at risk and his
intervention was needed. After the war, Thompson married one of
Churchill's secretaries, and her recollections, as well as those of
surviving family members, are interwoven to tell the revelatory
inside story of life beside the Greatest Briton.
