  Waterstones Churchill's Britain

  Price: £12.99

  Brand: Waterstones

   

  Description

  Description: More books have been written about Winston Churchill than any modern historical figure, but Peter Clark's Churchill's Britain does something quite different. It takes the reader the length and breadth of Britain and Ireland to lesser-known places associated with Churchill's life. Some are familiar - Blenheim Palace, Chartwell, the Cabinet War Rooms - but we also see his schools, far-flung parliamentary constituencies in Dundee and Epping, the sites of famous speeches, the place he started to paint, the shop he bought his cigars, and the final resting places of his family and close friends. We read about these places in his own words alongside Clark's insightful analysis and, by visiting sites that made important but less-celebrated contributions to the story of Churchill's life, we come closer to a full picture. Clark takes us from the site of his father's marriage proposal to his American future wife on the Isle of Wight to his grave in a country churchyard in Oxfordshire. Each of the eight regions of the United Kingdom is introduced with a map, and the entries cross-referenced. It can be dipped into, consulted by the traveller, or read straight through. However used, Churchill's Britain provides fascinating and fresh insights into this extraordinary man.

  Waterstones 111 Places in Fife That You Shouldn't Miss

  Price: £12.99

  Brand: Waterstones

   

  Description

  Description: Fife is an ancient Scottish county, proudly known as the Kingdom. Its distinctive, self-contained identity is summed up in the old adage 'Bid farewell to Scotland, and cross to Fife!' A compact peninsula shaped like the head of a Scottie dog nosing the North Sea, it boasts magnificent approaches from south and north via the celebrated bridges over the Forth and Tay. Tourists flock to the world-famous golf courses in the old university town of St Andrews. But Fife is packed with all manner of much less-visited treasures, places of stunning natural beauty as well as fascinating monuments of every era, from prehistoric to post-industrial, testaments to its long and eventful past and richly diverse cultural heritage. You will discover a land where generations of the illustrious and the powerful, the humble and the hard-working have all left their mark, from kings and queens to miners and fishermen, from bishops, earls and industrialists to scholars, artists and sportsmen - to say nothing of the internationally famed Fifers whose legacies have changed history. This book will introduce visitor and native alike to a whole host of unexpected and contrasting sites and sights that celebrate the delightful otherness of this unique little Kingdom.
