Description
Summary:	Ireland explores an often unseen side of Winston Churchill: as a loving family man who doted on his children, none more so than Randolph, his only boy and Winston's anointed heir to the Churchill legacy. Throughout Winston's climb to greatness, father and son were inseparable. Captivated by Winston's power, bravery and charisma, Randolph worshipped his father and Winston obsessed over his son's future. But their story was complicated by money, class and privilege, shaded with ambition, outsize expectations, resentments and failures.
