The 52 speeches and broadcasts which comprise this collection were delivered from 1847 to 1948, when Churchill was serving as Leader of the Opposition. The socialist Labour Party commanded a huge majority at this time, yet Churchill remained undeterred, as demonstrated by the wit and verve of this collection. Both foreign and domestic issues are considered, including escalating violence in Palestine, unsteady relations with America and the Soviet Union, conscription, nationalisation and Britain's postwar economic and imperial decline. This book was first published in time for the General Election of 1950, when Labour's majority was reduced to six. By 1951 Churchill had been restored to the office of Prime Minister
