Join us online for a discussion of the book "The Splendid and the Vile: A Saga of Churchill, Family, and Defiance During the Blitz" by Erik Larson.
In The Splendid and the Vile, Erik Larson shows how Churchill taught the British people "the art of being fearless." It is a story of political brinkmanship, but it's also an intimate domestic drama, set against the backdrop of Churchill's prime-ministerial country home, Chequers; his wartime retreat, Ditchley, where he and his entourage go when the moon is brightest and the bombing threat is highest; and of course 10 Downing Street in London. ~Goodreads.com
