The life of Walter H. Thompson, Winston Churchill's bodyguard from 1921 to 1945, is explored in this engaging authorized biography. Drawing heavily on extracts from a manuscript recently discovered by Thompson's great-niece, this insider's account unveils a number of occasions on which Churchill's life was put seriously at risk. The recollections of Thompson's wife, one of Churchill's secretaries, as well as those of surviving family members are interwoven to tell the intriguing story of a life spent beside the Greatest Briton.
