Although from different backgrounds, David Lloyd George and Winston
Churchill forged a close friendship, delighting in each other's
wit, oratory and unconventionality. Both were outsiders. Neither
attended university. Above all, both loved political sparring --
often together, in the epic parliamentary battles of the start of
the century. Theirs was a personal friendship that involved
frequent holidays together and support of each other's families.
But their real shared passion was politics. For ten years between
1904 and 1914 they met together every day for an hour's private
discussion. Lloyd George profoundly influenced Churchill's
political philosophy and played a formative role in his career.
Drawing on unseen family archive material, Robert Lloyd George
provides an intimate biography of the friendship between his
great-grandfather and Churchill, from their public politics to
their private passions. He throws fresh light on the two greatest
statesmen of twentieth century Britain in peace and in war, and on
one of the most enduring friendships in modern politics.
