The first twenty six years of Winston Churchill's life were packed with more adventure than most men see in a lifetime. He served with the 4th Hussars in India and in the Sudan he was present at the battle of Omdurman. As a newspaper correspondent he covered the Boer War, was taken prisoner and escaped. As a politician he laid the foundations of his later career with his election as M.P. for Oldham in 1900.
Based on exclusive use of Sir Winston's letters and papers, THE YOUNG CHURCHILL is a shortened version of YOUTH: 1874-1900, the first volume of Randolph S. Churchill's definitive biography of
WINSTON S. CHURCHILL.
