Reviews
Mr. Reid...following Manchester's lead,...dutifully includes both the admiring and disparaging remarks of Churchill's colleagues and contemporaries, presenting everyone's take with equanimity., "This book reminds us to remember...[Churchill's] iron will and ability to focus."-- Bob Schieffer, CBS's Face the Nation, "This book brilliantly recounts how Churchill organized his nation's military response and defense."-- Ernie Arico , The Daytona Beach News-Journal, "The third and final volume of a massive work of biography is a tribute not only to Manchester but also to Reid, whose courage in accepting the job is matched by his success in telling the story."-- Richmond Times-Dispatch, Masterful.... It was worth the wait.... The collaboration completes the Churchill portrait in a seamless manner, combining the detailed research, sharp analysis and sparkling prose that readers of the first two volumes have come to expect., [Reid] turned in a book that is well worth the wait. A large part of Manchester's popularity is the accessibility of his books. Reid has preserved that and ensured that Churchill's personality-not just his actions-come through., "[Reid] keeps the 1,000-plus pages turning....[he] has heeded the words of his subject, and brought the decades-long project begun by his mentor to a dignified conclusion."-- Dan DeLuca, Philadelphia Inquirer, The long-delayed majestic account of Winston Churchill's last 25 years is worth the wait....Manchester (and Reid) matches the outstanding quality of biographers such as Robert Caro and Edmund Morris, joining this elite bank of writers who devote their lives to one subject., True, Defender of the Realm is a big book. But Winston Churchill was a big man. Read all about him., Reid's got the research right, down to the day, down to the minute...As Reid chronicles Churchill's private aspects-his wittiness, sybaritic consumption of scotch and cigars, and moods bordering on depression...Manchester was one of the best Churchill biographers, and this capstone to his magnum opus ought not to be missed., "This is a big, rich savory stew of a book...deeply satisfying for those who have waited too long to be told-again-how The Last Lion finally ends."-- MacKenzie Carpenter, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, "Reid has written a thorough and complete analysis of these years, and it is a worthy finale to the first two volumes."-- Terry Hartle, Christian Science Monitor, Defender of the Realm is a worthy addition to the set... This accomplishment elevates Reid to a high rank among American writers of biography and history - and makes him a literary asset for North Carolina., "Mr. Reid...following Manchester's lead,...dutifully includes both the admiring and disparaging remarks of Churchill's colleagues and contemporaries, presenting everyone's take with equanimity."-- Wall Street Journal, Reid has written a thorough and complete analysis of these years, and it is a worthy finale to the first two volumes., This is surely the best installment of the [series]....Reid has written a winning, full-blooded biography., A distinguished contribution to Churchilliana, giving a lively, fully rounded account that maintains its balance even while it sustains an admiring legend of the great man., Masterful... [and] breathtaking....Reid...finished the race with agility, grace, and skill....This is a book that is brilliant and beautiful, evocative and enervating., "Reid learned well from Manchester, and the finished book is a worthy conclusion to what must be considered one of the most thorough treatments of Churchill so far produced. An essential conclusion to Manchester's magnum opus."-- Library Journal (starred review), "Reid's got the research right, down to the day, down to the minute...As Reid chronicles Churchill's private aspects-his wittiness, sybaritic consumption of scotch and cigars, and moods bordering on depression...Manchester was one of the best Churchill biographers, and this capstone to his magnum opus ought not to be missed."-- Booklist, "[Reid] turned in a book that is well worth the wait. A large part of Manchester's popularity is the accessibility of his books. Reid has preserved that and ensured that Churchill's personality-not just his actions-come through."-- Charlotte Observer, "Churchill was the greatest man of the last century and this is the greatest biography of him."-- John Lescroart , The Sacramento Bee, "The long-delayed majestic account of Winston Churchill's last 25 years is worth the wait....Manchester (and Reid) matches the outstanding quality of biographers such as Robert Caro and Edmund Morris, joining this elite bank of writers who devote their lives to one subject."-- Publishers Weekly, "Reid completes William Manchester's work in excellent, memorable fashion."-- Emmett Tyrrell, American Spectator, "Of five notable books about Churchill in recent years, the most remarkable is William Manchester and Paul Reid's Defender of the Realm ."-- Dennie Hall, The Oklahoman, The third and final volume...presents a revelatory and unparalleled portrait of a brilliant, flawed and dynamic leader., "[Reid's] palpable enthusiasm at thinking about Churchill demonstrates once again...the grip this iconic figure can still exercise on the imagination....Reid...use[s] his journalist's eye to pick up on small details or points of color that illustrate a wider truth."-- Richard Aldous, New York Times Book Review, " Defender of the Realm is a worthy addition to the set... This accomplishment elevates Reid to a high rank among American writers of biography and history - and makes him a literary asset for North Carolina."-- Doug Clark, Greensboro News and Record, "Reid has produced a volume about the climax of Churchill's career which ably captures the fullness of the story....

Synopsis
The long-awaited final volume of William Manchester's legendary biography of Winston Churchill. Spanning the years of 1940-1965, The Last Lion picks up shortly after Winston Churchill became Prime Minister-when his tiny island nation stood alone against the overwhelming might of Nazi Germany. The Churchill conjured up by William Manchester and Paul Reid is a man of indomitable courage, lightning-fast intellect, and an irresistible will to action. The Last Lion brilliantly recounts how Churchill organized his nation's military response and defense, compelled FDR into supporting America's beleaguered cousins, and personified the never surrender ethos that helped the Allies win the war, while at the same time adapting himself and his country to the inevitable shift of world power from the British Empire to the United States. More than twenty years in the making, The Last Lion presents a revelatory and unparalleled portrait of this brilliant, flawed, and dynamic leader. This is popular history at its most stirring., The long-awaited final volume of William Manchester's legendary biography of Winston Churchill.
