    About this ebook

    In this book you will find the best of that wit – ripe plums of humour taken from Churchill’s parliamentary replies and ripostes, prepared addresses, asides and off-the-cuff remarks – all revealing a trenchant sharpness of mind, fine appreciation of humour and devastating sense of fun.
