具體描述
On Winston Churchill's first day as prime minister, Hitler invaded Holland and Belgium. Poland and Czechoslovakia had already fallen, and the Dunkirk evacuation was just two weeks away. For the next twelve months, Hitler would wage a relentless bombing campaign, killing 45,000 Britons (30,000 of them Londoners) and destroying two million homes. It was up to Churchill to hold the country together and persuade President Franklin Roosevelt that Britain was a worthy ally--that she was willing to fight to the end.

##“When I look back on the perils which have been overcome, upon the great mountain waves in which the gallant ship has driven, when I remember all that has gone wrong, and remember also all that has gone right, I feel sure we have no need to fear the tempest. Let it roar, and let it rage. We shall come through” - W. Churchill
評分##好看好看好看！隻講瞭一年的曆史，但密度很大，丘吉爾身邊大到軍事計劃小到秘書的戀愛史都提到瞭。雖然很長字體很小，讀得不輕鬆，但寫得非常有畫麵感，曆史和當事人的感想穿插，有層次深度。
評分##跟Larson其他幾本書一個路子，研究大量的史料然後把一段有趣的曆史講成故事。但或許因為Churchill的故事太過人盡皆知，不如其他幾本引人入勝
評分##Very interesting to read. In another testing period of history, the British people teaches me a lesson of courage and faith.

評分##第一次聽有聲書，覺得這本太閤適瞭——既是很平實的曆史又有戲劇性，而且朗讀得非常好，把丘吉爾輕微的lisping都學齣來瞭。最後附上1941年美國參戰後丘吉爾在白宮的演講錄音，也是平時看書不會有的彩蛋。至於內容，曆史部分非常淺顯（也因此很適閤聽），有趣的是丘吉爾和他身邊的人的性格和日常，以及Blitz的陰影下不懈的生活，這就是標題中的 the splendid
評分##那段曆史太迷人瞭。Rule Britannia! [Bojo號稱視丘吉爾為偶像 - 但凡能學到半點皮毛也不至於這麼辣雞
