She was Winston Churchill's favourite child, his second daughter. She was as stubborn as her father, and as wilful and beautiful as her mother Clementine. Sarah Churchill didn't stand a chance: she was both blessed and doomed by her provenance and a singular character which was all her own. Sarah Churchill was definitely a difficult woman. Growing up as a child during World War I and as a wilful young woman 20 years later, whilst her father was steering the Allies to victory, she developed a taste for confrontation, drama, passionate allegiances and drink. This book looks at her memories of life in the Churchill household at crucial times. Despite failed marriages and a promising career as an actress destroyed by her urge to self-destruct, Sarah Churchill, up till her recent death, retained the faithful love of her friends, even as she descended into a life of elegant, amused near-squalor.
