Academic assignments in the U.S., New Zealand, and Australia in recent years reinforced for Ramsden (modern history, U. of London) Churchill's continuing influence on politicians outside the UK. In this biography, Ramsden examines the way in which Churchill projected himself across the world after 1945, how that self-projection was received, and how well it has stood the test of time. The author explores the response to Churchill at his 1965 funeral, the evolution of his reputation, his image after 1945, ways in which he was viewed by Celtic parts of the British Isles especially Ireland and across Europe, and ways in which non-British English-speaking peoples received Churchill's message and made it their own.
