[This is the Audiobook CD edition of Volume 2 -- and it is complete in this one retail package] VOLUME TWO -- The Last Lion: Winston Spencer Churchill, VOLUME TWO: Alone, 1932-1940 [Read by Richard Brown] This second volume in William Manchester's three-volume biography of Winston Churchill challenges the assumption that Churchill's finest hour was as a wartime leader. During the years 1932-1940, he was tested as few men are. Pursued by creditors -- at one point he had to put up his home for sale -- he remained solvent only by writing an extraordinary number of books and magazine articles. He was disowned by his own party, dismissed by the BBC and Fleet Street and the social and political establishments as a warmonger, and twice nearly lost his seat in Parliament.
