In his book, Andrew Roberts - winner of the Wolfson History Prize (the historians' Booker) - explores the secrets of leadership of two of the four men who comprise this ground-breaking TV series - key men of twentieth century history - Adolf Hitler, Winston Churchill, John F Kennedy and Martin Luther King. Each had a distinctive leadership style, each achieved greatness. Hitler - fresh insights into how he instilled loyalty. Churchill - far more ruthless with his staff than Hitler, but far more willing to listen and accept advice. Kennedy could rely on his family's fortune when he stood to be elected as the US's youngest president. Martin Luther King, whose help give the black Americans their rights so long denied them. Given that two of the four leaders were assassinated, one committed suicide and only one survived into benign old age, Andrew Roberts also examines the risks of leadership no reviews | add a review
'His book is timely and a triumph. Roberts manages to convey all the reader needs to know about two men to whom battalions of biographies have been devoted' EVENING STANDARD Adolf Hitler and Winston Churchill were two totally opposite leaders - both in what they stood for and in the way in which they seemed to lead. Award-winning historian Andrew Roberts examines their different styles of leadership and draws parallels with rulers from other eras. He also looks at the way Hitler and Churchill estimated each other as leaders, and how it affected the outcome of the war. In a world that is as dependent on leadership as any earlier age, HITLER AND CHURCHILL asks searching questions about our need to be led. In doing so, Andrew Roberts forces us to re-examine the way that we look at those who take decisions for us. No library descriptions found. |
