Those 16 of his finest speaches made during the darkest days of WWII demonstrated courage and inner strength of a great leader in modern world. I and my 11 year old have enjoyed it very much.

The editor's introductions to the speeches are sometimes inaccurate, but Churchill is a wonder to listen to. Highly recommended by anyone with an appreciation for history or literature.

Winny! God bless your soul October 13, 2008
You can't beat Winny. There's absolutley no silly emotionalism on these recordings. Sir Winston lays it down just as is it. 'Never give up' "Fight, fight fight" Toil and trouble... western civilization. blood and guts. This is all fighting stuff made when the Brits were still truely British. Stiff upper lip, never say die and so on. Well, it's nice to play when you are driving home home drunk or listening at home sober with the family. There a lot of wisdom here and let us not forget that while Adolf was screaming death and wacko racism, and eating vegetarian food and not even enjoying good German beer, Winny was plastered up most of the time and tucking into meat pies and steaks. Fanaticism surley does come out in many different manifestations.
