A magisterial history inspired by Winston Churchill's famous ì opus, A History of the English-Speaking Peoples Since ì 1900 is an engrossing account of the twentieth century, with ì a unique perspective on our turbulent times. In 1900, where ì Churchill ended the fourth volume of his History of the ì English-Speaking Peoples, the United States had not yet emerged ì onto the world scene as a great power. Yet the coming century was ì to belong to the English-sps.eaking peoples, who successively and ì successfully fought the Kaiser's Germany, Axis aggression and ì Soviet Communism, and who are now struggling against Islamic ì fundamentalist terrorism. Andrew Roberts's History proves ì especially invaluable as the United States today looks to other ì parts of the English-speaking world as its best, closest and most ì dependable allies.
