SynopsisThe perfect antidote to his 'Black Dog', a depression that blighted his working life, Churchill took to painting with gusto. Picking up a paintbrush for the first time at the age of forty, Winston Churchill found in painting a passion that was to remain his constant companion. This glorious essay exudes his compulsion for a hobby that allowed him peace during his dark days, and richly rewarded a nation with a treasure trove of work.
Anything written by Winston Churchill is great to read especially when it’s about what art expression meant to him! Very small book and a good read! George Bush is now a painter and recommended this book on CBS Sunday morning!
My wife and I enjoy and value the copy we bought for ourselves so much that we bought this copy to give to a friend.
Sincerely,
James (Jim) and Patti Orr
