ISBN: 9781402213922.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom Michael Dobbs, author of the book that inspired the smash hit Netflix series House of Cards, Churchills Hour is a stunning novel that brings Prime Minister Winston Churchill to life during the midst of WWII.\nIt is 1941, a year of desperation for England as it is battered by the war. Churchill has only one hope, that the U.S. will come to his countrys aid, but Roosevelt is unwilling to do so because America is wedded to isolationism.\nThe political difficulties Churchill faces are compounded by a very personal dilemma. Pamela, the wife of his dissolute son, Randolph, has fallen in love with FDRs special envoy to England, Averill Harriman. With England threatened by a German invasion and a desperate Russia devastated by the advancing Nazi onslaught, Churchill must convince America that his cause is theirs. The secret of how he does so is so damning he will take the knowledge to his grave. Following his acclaimed Churchill novels Never Surrender and Churchills Triumph, Dobbs powerful reimagining makes Englands feisty prime minister jump off the page.\nIncludes bonus reading group guide.\nPraise for Michael Dobbs, bestselling author of House of Cards, the book that inspired the Netflix series:\n\"Churchill as nature intended: Dobbs captures his famous subject with artistry.
