About Winston Church (1871-1947)
Winston Churchill was an American novelist who moved to Canaan, New Hampshire in 1899. Churchill's early novels were historical but his later works were set in contemporary America. He often sought to include his political ideas into his novels. Churchill wrote in the naturalist style of literature, and some have called him the most influential of the American naturalists.
About the Winston Churchill Letters (1899-1951)
Twenty-three letters written by Winston Churchill between 1899-1951. The letters are both business and personal in nature. Churchill wrote thirteen of the letters to various correspondents and ten letters to George W. Spohn. Also included in the collection is a letter from Churchill’s son, Creighton Churchill, that states that the family was not yet ready to have anyone write a biography of their father.
