Churchill and the King

Winston Churchill, Prime Minister of England during WWII, and King George VI, had a friendly relationship, but a complicated one. They were very different people, with different ways of doing things, yet they had to find a way to work together to defeat Hitler. I'm sorry King George died so young, he sounds like he was a kind, generous, brave man who truly did the best he could for his country. Churchill has always fascinated me, but there's so much out there about him I hardly know where to begin. This book was a nice little introduction to his character, and maybe someday I'll get up the courage to tackle one of those doorstopper biographies about him :)
