description: Winston Churchill has long been one of the world’s preeminent leadership role models, his voice still reverberating more than forty years after his death. This was illustrated when New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani, described after 9/11 as “Winston Churchill in a Yankees cap,” wrote to Celia Sandys: “Your grandfather was a great source of inspiration and strength to me following the tragic events.” In We Shall Not Fail, Sandys (with coauthor Jonathan Littman) distills the traits that made Churchill so effective throughout his career, including his use of language, his courage under fire, and his willingness to defy convention and stand up to bullies. Drawing on vivid personal stories, as well as her grandfather’s letters and speeches, Sandys reveals the lessons we must all learn if we are to lead in today’s tough times.
