One of Churchill's more important collections of essays. The foresight of these speeches, dating from 1928 - 1938, given by Winston Churchill, is quite astounding. In them he criticises the then current British foreign policy with warnings and exhortations, both prophetic and largely unheeded, going against the Munich Agreement and the British government, led by his predecessor, Neville Chamberlain.
