Winston Churchill as historian : ウィキペディア英語版 | Winston Churchill as historian
The British statesman Winston Churchill was a prolific writer throughout his life, and many of his works were historical. His better-known historical works include: ''Marlborough: His Life and Times'', ''The World Crisis'' (a history of World War I), ''The Second World War'', which earned him the Nobel Prize in Literature, and ''A History of the English-Speaking Peoples''. ==Churchill's view of history== Churchill was an exponent of the view that the British and American people had a unique greatness and destiny and that all British history should be seen as progress towards fulfilling that destiny. This belief inspired his political career as well as his historical writing. Although Churchill was not a trained historian, the influences on his historical thought and prose style, were likely Clarendon's history of the English Civil War, Gibbon's ''Decline and Fall'' and Macaulay's ''History of England''.
