What was Winston Churchill doing while the world prepared for war?”
“He was writing. Between 1933 and 1939, Churchill produced his greatest historical masterpiece: Marlborough: His Life and Times.
This specific set—the 1939 Limited Presentation Edition—was released just as the first bombs of WWII began to fall. It features the rare, sun-bright yellow jackets that have survived over 85 years of history.
To own this set is to own a piece of the man before he became a legend.
