If you cringe whenever you hear our civic leaders butcher an overrehearsed line mix a metaphor or use any number of PC abominations currently in vogue wash your ears out with this collection of speeches by a master of the English language I consider any literary work or speech by Churchill to be among the best examples of the proper use of our great and beautiful language More so than even Shakespeare because Shakespeare is so antiquated Churchill is the high priest of proper modern English Churchill had a way of mixing humor invective and sarcasm to drive home his point but never in a base or vulgar way He never pandered to the audience or talked down to them he spoke honestly in a determined and forthright manner that assumed a level of intelligence capable of understanding whatever he said Churchill was the most quotable of twentieth century world leaders Who could forget his cut at Mussolini An Italian sausage in a Sam Browne belt Or this gem about truth which should have been played weekly during the political scandals of the 1990s Truth is incontrovertible Malice may attack it and ignorance deride it but in the end there it is This book also serves as an excellent historical reference It is thoroughly indexed and has a comprehensive table of contents The editor has written a helpful preface to each series of speeches to provide background for the modern reader The book should prove interesting to any history buff and should read like poetry to those who love the English language properly used
