Title: long winded and drawn out
Product review: I read Roy Jenkins's biography of Churchill soon after Edmund Morris's The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt. Jenkins work did not compare. His writing was drawn out and labored, with extensive references to obscure members of the British aristocracy and long passages on parliamentary procedures. The author's constant reminder of his own career in parliament was an annoying distraction. The book's strongest section was the chapters on Churchill's wartime conferences with FDR and Stalin. I have always admired Churchill and I was looking for a well-written comprehensive biography. I am still searching for that book.
