For fans of The King's Speech, the intriguing bond between monarch and prime minister and its crucial role during World War IIThe political and personal relationship between King George VI and Winston Churchill during World War II is one that has been largely overlooked throughout history, yet the trust and loyalty these men shared helped Britain navigate its perhaps most trying time.Despite their vast differences, the two men met weekly and found that their divergent virtues made them a powerful duo. The king’s shy nature was offset by Churchill’s willingness to cast himself as the nation’s savior. Meanwhile, Churchill’s complicated political past was given credibility by the king’s embrace and counsel. Together as foils, confidants, conspirators, and comrades, the duo guided Britain through war while reinspiring hope in the monarchy, Parliament, and the nation itself.Books about these men as individuals could fill a library, but Kenneth Weisbrode’s study of the unique bond between them is the first of its kind.

At this time of writing, The Audiobook Churchill and the King: The Wartime Alliance of Winston Churchill and George VI has garnered 9 customer reviews with rating of 5 out of 5 stars. Not a bad score at all as if you round it off, it’s actually a perfect TEN already. From the looks of that rating, we can say the Audiobook is Good TO READ!

I spent $13 for a book written by an author who doesn’t understand that QEII is GVI’s elder, not eldest of, two daughters. I spent $13 for a book filled with such enlightenment as, “Real adversity forces [people] to face who they really are. It forces them to confront the extent of their strength and weakness. In so doing, it extends and sharpens the capacity for empathy. Knowing themselves that much more allows them to know others better, and vice versa.” I left this book with no new insights, but with raw resentment towards the author, editor, and publisher. The prose emerged from the bowels of a Basic Writers Anonymous class, rubbing hackneyed elbows with Who Moved My Cheese? on its way through the exit. The first half of the book boils down to one sentence: Two men from different worlds forge a working relationship in a time of grave hardship and danger.Instead of such concision, the author opts for claptrap. The chapter on character includes such useful observations as, “Their alliance, then, was about refining and selling each other’s character as much as it was about duty and prerogative, or about clarifying each other’s thinking.” Blah blah blah, “The evidence suggests that most of their Tuesday “picnics”—their weekly lunches, which began in September 1940—were filled with discussions of operations, the kind of talk the king craved. Mastering the brief brought satisfaction. Churchill’s self-confidence in facts and presentation must have rubbed off. The exchange may have served an additional purpose in forcing their individual and collective minds to set the best priorities possible, as an obsession with details may do for some people who use it to tame the imagination, adjust perspective, and prevent panic over complexity.” I quit before finishing this chapter, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the author had included Churchill and Bertie’s astrological charts in his analysis.I only wish I had bought the paper edition so I could have the joy of throwing this book across the room and into a wall.
