review 1: I enjoyed this book, although it was sometimes pretty verbose. The author showed a bit of history that I was familiar with from a new perspective, making connections that I hadn't always noticed before. It was interesting to see how the two men grew to respect and admire each other, and how that affected the war effort. As I said, it can get verbose at times. The author sometimes uses some obscure words and overly long descriptions that can get confusing, but it isn't so distracting that you can't still enjoy it. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys reading about Churchill, King George VI and/or World War II.
review 2: A very short but intersting history of the relationship between Churchill and George VI. At first glance it would seem that the two
... more men would be at odds with one another but perhaps because of their differences they formed a very strong relationship. The author does a good job of pointing out their common traits and also how their opposite ones complimented one another. A very insightful look into these two men. less
