You have taken the measure of your foe, you only have to go forward with confidence.' Dundee, June 1915 All is over. Silent, mournful, abandoned, broken, Czechoslovakia recedes into darkness.' House of Commons, October 1938 We shall not fail or falter; we shall not weaken or tire- Give us the tools, and we will finish the job.' BBC broadcast, February 1941 Winston Churchill was the most eloquent and expressive statesman of his time. It was as an orator that Churchill became most completely alive, and it was through his oratory that his words made their greatest and most enduring impact. He used language as his most powerful weapon at a time when his most frequent complaint was that the armoury was otherwise empty. While the definitive collection of Churchill's speeches fills eight volumes, here, his grandson, Winston Churchill, has put together a personal selection of his favourite speeches in a single volume. He has chosen from his grandfather's entire output - this selection covers the whole of Churchill's life, from the very first speech he made to his last days. It includes some of Churchill's best-known speeches as well as some that have never before been published
