From London’s inimitable mayor, Boris Johnson, the story of how Churchill’s eccentric genius shaped not only his world but our own. On the fiftieth anniversary of Churchill’s death, Boris Johnson celebrates the singular brilliance of one of the most important leaders of the twentieth century. Taking on the myths and misconceptions along with the outsized reality, he portrays—with characteristic wit and passion—a man of contagious bravery, breathtaking eloquence, matchless strategizing, and deep humanity. Fearless on the battlefield, Churchill had to be ordered by the king to stay out of action on D-Day; he pioneered aerial bombing and few could match his experience in organizing violence on a colossal scale,  yet he hated war and scorned politicians who had not experienced its horrors. He was the most famous journalist of his time and perhaps the greatest orator of all time, despite a lisp and chronic depression he kept at bay by painting. His maneuvering positioned America for entry into World War II, even as it ushered in England’s post-war decline. His openmindedness made him a trailblazer in health care, education, and social welfare, though he remained incorrigibly politically incorrect. Most of all, he was a rebuttal to the idea that history is the story of vast and impersonal forces; he is proof that one person—intrepid, ingenious, determined—can make all the difference.

Unlike most Churchill biographies by scholars, this is not a serious, ponderous read. It is witty, entertaining, fast-paced, and full of knowledge. Churchill does not need another biography, and Boris Johnson is standing on the shoulders of Martin Gilbert, Andrew Roberts, Roy Jenkins, John Lukacs, and many more. But he is a journalist at heart, and he reads rippingly well. In an early chapter, he describes the offer to "negotiate" with Hitler which was embraced by Lord Halifax and others, a key turning point in the war that John Lukacs wrote an entire book about. Mr. Johnson is a master of concision. He describes in the next chapter how the world would have looked if the offer had been accepted and Britain had in fact surrendered.The biography breezes easily through Churchill's early life and exploits, exploding myths and disappointing those of us who believed certain apercus were Churchill's, like the "I'd drink it" story. Churchill's writing, his oratorical technique, his "John Bull" personality are given their respective due. There is even a tribute to the woman to whom Johnson attributed Churchill's quality of mercy: his beloved nanny, Mrs Everest.The American reader can enjoy the opportunity of learning much British slang, as Johnson is an irreverent correspondent, as well as words that the Oxford Concise describes as Brit., archaic. But the writing is a pleasure to read, the pace never flags. If you have not read a Churchill biography before, this is as good an introduction as any.
