Gilbert chronicles the pressures of high command, the internal conflicts within the Admiralty and the political battles that shaped Churchill’s public standing. The narrative details the Gallipoli campaign, the Dardanelles controversy and Churchill’s determined efforts to return to frontline service. The supplementary volumes expand the documentary record and instruct the reader in the complexity of Churchill’s administrative and military responsibilities. Together, the set argues for Churchill’s resilience and intellectual force during one of the most punishing periods of his career.
