Original and revelatory portrait of Churchill post Second World War which examines the development of his fame and his posthumous reputation from one of Britain's leading political writers

John Ramsden is head of the history department at Queen Mary and Westfield College and a first-rate professional historian. He is a brilliant lecturer with an enviable reputation and is widely admired by the likes of Ben Pimlott and Peter Hennessy, who describes him as 'much better than me'. His first trade book, AN APPETITE FOR POWER: A NEW HISTORY OF THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY is the book to replace Lord Blake's history - an authoritative, readable, classic history book.

Ramsden's second trade book is one on Churchill post-Second World War. This will not be 'yet another book' on Churchill, but a fresh, original biographical study of Churchill's post-war fame and reputation, what he was thought to stand for and how that reputation was constructed. It will contain a lot of new and revelatory material on how his personality, attitudes, and vision of himself have affected our own political perception of ourselves as a nation, and will argue that Churchill's romantic, imperial notion of Britain has contributed directly to many of the political debates of recent years - particularly our attitudes in Europe. This will not be a dry political analysis but an important biographical study of the man who found himself described as the prized possession of the whole world, and of the whole Churchill phenomenon from one of our most interesting and readable historians.

This is Ramsden's turf. This aspect of Churchill has never been dealt with in any depth and he will undertake extensive new research amongst archives in Britain and the USA - much of which have either not been drawn on before or have only just been released.

Good product
Color: Black, Size: Small
So far so good. It has enough spots for remotes, seems to be good quality and works well. Its staggered height of the pockets works great and looks fine on the end table.

A MUST HAVE for my remote as I always drop or loose my remote! Easer to hold too!
Color: Glow Green, Color: Glow Green
I'm on my 2nd or 3rd Apple TV and the remotes stink for me as its like my home office / bedroom eats my remote. The apple remote is also very small and hard for me to hold in my hand and will just slip out of my hand an "poof" gone! However this remote cover is the ticket! I no longer drop my remote but if I do loose it, this bright color glow in the dark is easy to spot! Just like all glow in the dark stuff it must be "charged" under light to glow and is limited how long it will glow. I charged it under a desk lamp before I took the included picture. However, even if it looses its glow charge the fluorescent green / yellow color is easer to spot on a dark floor or under a dark bed or sofa and is easy to spot when using a flash light too if its no longer glowing, the color stands out to the eye in a dark room. This product truly transforms that slick hard to hold and hard to use and impossible to find Apple remote into something I now enjoy using! This is a MUST HAVE PRODUCT if you have a Apple TV! Great stuff at a GREAT price! A TRUE MUST HAVE!
