Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1949. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Here is a full set of U.S. editions of Churchill's postwar speeches in the scarce dust jackets. These volumes span the period from immediately after the Second World War, when Churchill was Leader of the Opposition, through the end of 1952, during his second Premiership. The events encompassed by these years are in many ways no less dramatic than those of the war years - the unraveling of the British Empire, the post-war recovery, the beginning of the Cold War, Soviet acquisition of the atomic bomb and U.S. invention of the hydrogen bomb. The U.S. postwar speeches were published in very small numbers, making jacketed U.S. editions much rarer than their British counterparts.

All four volumes offered here are in near-fine condition with no spotting and no previous owner… Leer más

London: Cassell and Company Ltd,, 1948-61. Building the post-war world First editions, first impressions, of the full set of the publications of Churchill's post-war speeches, edited by his son Randolph. Though Churchill's post-war life is often seen as a footnote to his wartime leadership, his renowned oratory still attracted huge audiences, and his speeches were publicized around the world. The speeches cover the period from Churchill's role as Leader of the Opposition following his unexpected 1945 election defeat (including the famous Iron Curtain speech), to his return to Downing Street from 1951 to 1955, and to his final retirement from high office. Themes include the need for European unity and to counter the Soviet threat. Events covered include the Queen's coronation, decolonization, Indian independence, the creation of Israel, and the Labour government's programme of nationalization and the expansion of the welfare state.
