kottke.org posts about 'winstonchurchill'

List of great insults. It may be apocryphal, but I've always loved the exchange between Lady Astor and Winston Churchill: "Lady Astor: 'Sir, if you were my husband, I would poison your drink.' Churchill: 'Madam, if you were my wife, I would drink it.'" (via dooce)

The memoirs of Winston Churchill's bodyguard have been recently discovered. "Why, Thompson, did they allow the president [FDR], almost dying on his feet, to be there? All Europe will suffer from the decisions made at Yalta."

"A cameraman at Yalta tells what it was like to spend a few days in claustrophobic luxury with Winston Churchill and Franklin Roosevelt--and to be offered a job by Joseph Stalin".
