WINSTON CHURCHILL'S WAR LEADERSHIP

內容簡介

內容簡介 How does he assess the information that is brought to him? How does his personal or political philosophy, or a moral sense, sustain him? How does he draw inspiration from those around him? How does he deal with setbacks and disasters? In this brilliant close-up look at Winston Churchill's leadership during the Second World War, Gilbert gets to the heart of the trials and struggles that have confronted the world's most powerful leaders, even up to current politicians such as George Bush and Tony Blair.Basing the book on his intimate knowledge of Churchill's private and official papers, Sir Martin Gilbert, Churchill’s official biographer, looks at the public figure and wartime propaganda, to reveal a very human, sensitive, and often tormented man, who nevertheless found the strength to lead his nation forward from the darkest and most dangerous of times.

各界推薦

各界推薦 英國前首相邱吉爾是世界公認的20世紀最偉大的人物。邱吉爾（Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill，1874－1965），英國政治家、演說家、軍事專家，甚至自己撰寫書籍。他於1940年至1945年曾出任英國首相期間，帶領英國在第二次世界大戰取得勝利，之後1951年再度出任首相至1955年。邱吉爾不僅是20世紀最重要的政治領袖之一，更於1953年獲諾貝拉文學獎。本書作者Martin Gilbert是研究邱吉爾的權威，他在本書中把議題放在邱吉爾在戰爭時所做的決策與領導風格，二戰時期，當法國決定投降之際，邱吉爾決定繼續與德國對抗，書中說道，邱吉爾在最危急的時刻，仍不願意與邪惡妥協談判，他當時不認輸的個性，甚至發表了當時最振奮人心的演說，讓英國可以在這場戰爭中獲得勝利，邱吉爾也並非沒有懷疑與絕望的時刻，不過他都可以克服，甚至鼓舞身邊其他的人，這是他的特質，也讓他成為二時世界的領導領袖。
