EUGENE L. RASOR is Professor Emeritus of History, at Emory and Henry College./e He is the author of ten historiographical and bibliographical surveys, all published by Greenwood.
"[Rasor] skillfully guides the reader through the prodigious amount
of research and writing that has been done on Winston
Churchill....Never have Rasor's gifts for judiciously sorting
through the historical literature been put to better use than in
this indispensable historiographical-bibliographical work on
Churchill. In the Internet Age, studies such as Professor Rasor's
are more necessary than ever to help the student, general reader,
and researcher locate those sources that are based on genuine
scholarship....Every historian of 20th century studies will want a
copy of Winston S. Churchill, 1874-1965: Historiography and
Annotated Bibliography on their bookshelf."-Colin Baxter Professor
of History East Tennessee State University
"Churchill's long, colorful and important career has produced a
small library of books. Even diligent students need help in finding
their way through it. Eugene Rasor should, henceforth, be their
preferred guide. Both Churchill buffs and academic historians are
in Rasor's debt for the diligence with which he has tracked down
material, the clarity with which he has presented it and the common
sense of his accompanying commentary. Those on all sides of the
discussion about the meanings of Winston need this book on their
shelves."-Raymond Callahan Association Dean/Outreach Director
University of Delaware
"Eugene Rasor has composed the ultimate Churchill bibliography. It
is sweeping in scope, accurate in description, shrewd and fair in
its assessments, and permeated by a sense of equipoise and grace.
The extensive historiographical essay blends perfectly with the
3099 annotated entries in the bibliography. No scholarly library,
historian of British history, or collector of Churchilliana will
want to be without this superb volume."-John Fair Chair, Department
of History Georgia College and State University
"So much has been written about Winston Churchill that even the
experts lose their way in the dense jungle of books and articles on
the subject. Thanks to Eugene Rasor, we can all be experts and no
one need ever lose the way again. In a single volume he has given
us both a fascinating historiography of Churchill, organised by
theme and topic, and a stupendous bibliography, running from A to Z
by author, of almost everything written by or about him. All
students of Churchill's life and times will be indebted to this
magnificent work."-Paul Addison Director of the Centre for Second
World War Studies, Department of History University of
Edinburgh
"This impressive and comprehensive guide to the writings by and
about Winston Churchill is likely to take its place as a
classic....As a politician, statesman, historian or literary person
Churchill made spectacular, noteworthy and even contentious
contributions to British history and to that of the wider sphere of
British Empire and the world. It is the compiler's special credit
that he treats the subject with professional detachment as well as
thoroughness. This work, then, will remain one of the best ways for
the student and researcher to access the large literature on
Churchill. It merits the highest praise as a work of
reference."-Barry Gough Professor of History Wilfrid Laurier
University
"This is a truly impressive achievement by a distinguished and
experienced scholar. Far more than a traditional bibliography, its
superb historiographical commentary is a treasure that will prove
indispensable to all future students of Churchill."-David Stafford
author of Churchill and Secret Service
