Geoffrey Wheatcroft praises David Lough’s No More Champagne in June 2016 edition of The New York Review
June’s edition of The New York Review carries an essay Churchill: Great and Mean in which Geoffrey Wheatcroft reviews David Lough’s No More Champagne, describing it as ‘hugely enjoyable and illuminating’ and ‘richly detailed’.
He writes: ‘What’s notable is that all the best recent books have dealt with specific aspects of [Churchill]. … Lough’s book completes a kind of triptych of splendid books. First came In Command of History by David Reynolds (2005) … . Then in 2012 Peter Clarke, another Cambridge historian, published Mr. Churchill’s Profession.’
