by: Winston S. Churchill

Hardcover. Boston, Little, Brown, And Company, 1st, 1946, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Hardcover, bound in publisher's red cloth, lettered in gold with black letterbox, 307 pages. The sixth of Churchill's seven war speech volumes. Victory contains speeches from January to August 1945. Having done so much to win the war, Churchill faced frustration of his postwar plans when his wartime government fell to Labor in the General Election of July 1945. His final speech in this volume - a review of the war delivered on 16 August 1945 to the House of Commons - is delivered as Leader of the Opposition rather than as Prime Minister. Clean, bright copy.
