Dinner with Churchill: Policy-Making at the Dinner Table
“A  delightful and fascinating book in which we are reminded that an  evening dining with Churchill must have been one of the most memorable  and enjoyable occasions one could have hoped for.” (Andrew Roberts, author of The Storm of War)“A  delightful and delicious tribute to Churchill’s heroic appetite for  wining, dining and politicking.” (Ben Macintyre, author of Operation Mincemeat)“A feast for foodies and history buffs alike,Dinner With Churchilloffers a delicious and easily digestible portrait of the culinary tactics that helped its subject win the cooperation of others and, in so doing, the global conflict that threatened to destroy everything he held dear.” (Jay Stafford - The Richmond TImes Dispatch)“The  Churchill industry has been so productive in the decades since his  death, and such libraries of books have been published, that an original  take on his exceptionally well-documented life might seem impossible.  However, with this readable "gastrobiography," Stelzer has succeeded  brilliantly in producing one.” (The Sunday Times)“Acutely revealing.” (Times Literary Supplement)“What  a wonderful repast Cita Stelzer has served us. History as it was  consumed: Roosevelt sipping, Churchill quaffing – the best (and not so  good) cuts and the great vintages are all on the table. Another bottle,  please!” (William Shawcross, author of Justice and the Enemy)
