Beschreibung:
Winston Churchill had long warned of the danger posed by Nazi Germany and by 1940 he was at the helm of a country at war. He brought Britain victory on 8 May 1945 but his Tory party suffered a heavy defeat at the polls a few weeks later at the hands of Labour. Churchill was returned to Downing Street in 1951 and finally retired from office four years later aged 81.
