Description: Churchill's Cigar by Stephen McGinty Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description A charming story of a love affair that repeatedly went up in smoke. Publisher Description During the Second World War, Churchills cigar was such an important beacon of resistance that MI5, together with the nations top scientists, tested the Prime Ministers supplies on mice rather than risk sabotage. Today Winston Churchill and his cigar remains a global icon, memorialised by a 107 foot statue of a cigar in Australia, while his cigar stubs are treasured as relics. Using original archival research and exclusive interviews with Churchills staff, Stephen McGinty, an award-winning journalist, explores Churchills passion for cigars and the solace they brought. He also examines Churchills lasting friendship with Antonio Giraudier, the Cuban businessman who for twenty years stocked Churchills humidor, before fleeing Castros revolution. Author Biography Stephen McGinty is a senior writer with the Scotsman newspaper. He has also worked for the Sunday Times in London and the Glasgow Herald. His first book, This Turbulent Priest (2003), was described by the Daily Telegraph as: the years most surprising page-turner. His favourite cigar is a Cohiba Robusto.
