In the historical volume of the 20th century in the UK, Churchill is an irreplaceable monumental character, a wise and decisive and unique historical giant. Churchy, who has been selected for the whole people, has been in the list of 160,000 cigars in his life. Shakespeare, who has been a British business card for more than 400 years. People are the most complicated existence in the world. The more politicians, the more "multi -faceted". Churchill is no exception as one of World War II giants and world heroes who resist the Nazi Fascism. However, no matter how "complicated" the external "face" of Churchill, no matter how difficult it is to have the conclusion of the coffin, his spiritual pursuit and value concept are consistent. Adhere to. Different from the biography of Churchill in the past, the book "Walking with Destiny" focuses on writing and explaining Churchill's loyalty to the British Empire, sympathy for the lower levels of Britain, insight into the evolution of the times, and this insight The inherent connection of prediction with the world structure today is intended to express the significant impact of "great models of firm leadership" on the cannot be underestimated by future generations.

The World War II was the largest worldwide war in human history so far. This war has incorporated almost all capitalist countries, colonial semi -colonial countries, and the only socialist country at that time into the war system, and divided the world out of The hostile camp of justice and evil is incompatible. History pushed Churchill to the center of the world's political stage and the pinnacle of personal career, so that it left a bright page in the history of British and global war. The book "Walking with Destiny" focuses on the performance and actions of Churchill during World War II. After the Nazi Germany entered the Poland in 1939, after the start of World War II, Churchill, who had always been excluded as the main battle, entered Chamberlain as the Prime Minister's British Cabinet as the Navy Minister. One year later, Churchill replaced the appeasement Zhang Bollen as the role British Prime Minister and Minister of Defense. On the third day of his appointment, Churchill elaborated to members of the Cabinet in the parliament building in the parliamentary building. In the history of sin, the poor and bad tyranny have never been in the war. "" No matter how terrifying it is, you must fight for victory. No matter how far and difficult the road is, we must win, because we cannot survive without victory. " For the first time, the British lower house, which was silent for the first time, broke out of warm applause. The book uses a large number of examples to demonstrate and interpret the firm position of Churchi to fight against Nazi Germany. It is this firm position closely closed the door of Hitler's persuasion to the British Island. The British Empire defeated from France to the outbreak of the Soviet -German war that broke out for a whole year. The British government and the British army headed by Churchill made a stubborn attack on Nazi Germany, making the world's anti -fascist war dawn and future prospects. The second volume of the book writes the highlight history of Churchill in the pen and ink, especially Churchill to assist the exile governments of the falling countries in mainland China to establish an anti -German base in the UK. It has also been clearly sorted out and prominently explained in this book.

Human behavior is often faladed and driven by two factors: one is social law, the other is inner conscience, and the restrictions of the law have external compulsory power, while the rules of conscience have internal flexible function. Churchill is a one. Noble politicians who have listened to conscience calling for free will. Another highlight of Churchill's political career appeared in an important point of the Second World War: in June 1941, Hitler could not attack the Britain for a long time, so he adjusted its strategic deployment to make a troops eastward, concentrating on the Soviet Union of lightning invasion. Churchill reminded the Soviet leaders a week before the Nazi Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union, and wrote a letter to US President Roosevelt that if the Soviet German war broke out, "of course, we must follow Hitler the basic principle of the common enemy we must defeat. Give the Russians with the greatest encouragement and any assistance we can provide. I think there will be no class political reflection here. "On the day of the outbreak of the Soviet -German war, Churchill made clearly announced in a radio speech to the world:" Russia The crisis is our crisis, we stand firmly on the side of Russia! "This speech was called" historic speech "by Stalin, which laid the ideological foundation for the establishment of the world's anti -fascist alliance. Laipan a completely failed foreshadowing. Power is a political helper and slave, and war is another way and means of politics. Although the second chapter in the book reviews Churchill's early years of Rongma, he is different from professional soldiers such as Moncore and Camp Ningan. In World War II, he participated in the command of the war. For example, weighing the gains and losses of Britain in the entire war, predicting the military development trend of the changing great powers, and insight into the changes in the post -war international political pattern. Get centralized performance and fully manifestations. Churchill, who has made a lot of conspiracy in the book, used a variety of ways to repeatedly lobby Roosevelt, hoping that Roosevelt was determined to open up the "second battlefield" in the western European continent as soon as possible. From Southeast Europe, the fast line of Berlin, restores Britain's traditional sphere of influence in Southeast Europe, and then block the Soviet Red Army, which is promoted from east to west, is intended to eliminate the spread and penetration of socialism on the European continent. Before the war, European capitalist order and camp. The book focuses on the strategic counterattack when the U.S. -British Allied Army landed on the Norman bottom, and Churchill immediately organized those western European exile governments to return to the mainland to rebuild the regime, creating prerequisites for the aftermath of the Britain after the war and the use of these regimes. As a smart and cunning of international political masters who are good at planning, practice has proved that Qiu Gil's dedicated diplomacy has indeed created a win -win situation for the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union.

In the book, the author described the plot and details of Churchill and Stalin to confirm the Balgan Peninsula's area of ​​power, which made readers chew and play. Churchill opened the "advantages" and "discourse rights" that Britain and the Soviet Union enjoyed in Southeast Europe, and Stalin quickly brought a big hook with a blue steel pen. For this subtle historical scene, the book quotes the original words of Churchill's memoirs, "faster than writing it." The two major political giants were very calm in grabbing the results of World War II. But history is a double -edged sword. After the end of World War II, the magnificent national liberation movement of the colonial semi -colonial country, shake the foundation of the Great British Empire in a short time, although Churchill once vowed that "I will never be the Prime Minister of the British Empire in my hands", but the Churchill ’s war The ambiguous attitude makes it a promoter and witness of this historical change, which is also an objective fact that the book cannot avoid.

Churchill said to his wife Claimin: "If I don't make mistakes, I can't have any achievements." The book "Walking with Destiny" did not deny and dilute the faults of Churchill's life. Jieqiu Gil's achievements and faults, guiding readers to cross the historical smoke of more than half a century, and see the true face of the controversial heir. Since entering the 21st century, a "Churchill Hot" has emerged worldwide. Film and television works with Churchill have continued to compete for the Oscar gold award. The three works written by Churchill himself have also been re -sold. In -depth considerations of Chirgil's political claims. In order to deepen the conservative direction of Churchill's spiritual world, Andrew Roberts visited Churchill's favorite rural villas and 10 London apartments and Tangning Street at the wartime. Turkey's Garpoli battlefield and the Trencoules on the Rhine Rhine in Germany exposed the multi -dimensional face of the legendary Prime Minister Churchill with full passion and rich historical expected. A strong man, a spiritual leader who has abandoned the worldly and courageous movement.

Different from secular politicians' reputation for a while, Churchill cares about the world's population and permanent evaluation. After all, Churchill is not a professional bureaucrat. In addition to the status of politicians, he is also a successful best -selling writer and excellent speech. Home, as described in the book: "Churchill has a lot of retreats -he has many different interests outside politics, which means that he can view politics more than most professional politicians." Churchill came from the famous look, His ancestor John Churchill was named the Duke of Marbelle by the royal family because of his outstanding achievements and became one of the famous politicians in British history. In the post -Victorian era of Churchill, the British aristocracy generally made a sense of anger and arrogance. This spiritual trait is extremely obvious and prominent on Churchill, who is a ancestor. , But this kind of character often gives them distant knowledge, as Roberts pointed out in the book: "If there is no conquered self -confidence given by his class background, he may be according to the politics of the 1930s in the 1930s. The environment adjusts its own political principles instead of dismissive of this idea. "Churchill does not conclude the mainstream of politics and is good at adherence to his own opinions, and is inseparable from his life that he firmly persisted in heroism, insisting on his destiny, as the author is in the preface. I wrote: "I hope the readers feel that in this world of obscure, suffocating, and narrow -minded worlds, there is still honor and heroism. And no matter how much errors you make in your life, as long as you can look like Churchill The same lesson, it is still possible to achieve great career. "
