First edition of this work on Churchill regarding his seventy-year relationship with the United States. Octavo, original half cloth, illustrated. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author in the year of publication on the title page, "To Patricia Baker, with the author's regards Martin Gilbert Washington 19 October 2005."

The indefatigable chronicler of Winston Churchill, official biographer Gilbert tracks Churchill's relationship to the U.S. This volume--at least the seventeenth Gilbert has published about Churchill--informs readers exactly when and where Churchill went on his 16 trips to the U.S., whom he met, and the business he transacted. Americans who met Churchill in Europe are placed into the same compositional framework.
