Download or read book Lloyd George written by Frank Dilnot and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-02-18 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mr. Lloyd George gets a grip on those who read about him, but his personality is far more powerful and fascinating to those who have known the man himself, known him during the time his genius has been forcing him to eminence. He does not fill the eye as a sanctified hero should; he is too vitally human, too affectionate, too bitter, and he has, moreover, springs of humor which bubble up continually. (You cannot imagine an archangel with a sense of humor.) But it is this very mixture in the man that holds the character student.

Download or read book Lloyd George and Churchill written by Richard Toye and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2012-07-12 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two most significant British political figures of the twentieth-century, Churchill and Lloyd George were political rivals but personal friends. Between them their ministerial careers spanned seventy years and two world wars. Althought they could not have been more different temperamentally, and often disagreed violently about politics, theirs was 'the longest political friendship in the life of Great Britain' and Churchill was the only person outside his family to call Lloyd George 'David'. Richard Toye's book is a dynamic account of their relationship. Drawing on diaries and letters, some never before published, (there are more than 1,000 pieces of correspondence between the two men), he explores their long-standing friendship and rivalry, the impact they had on each other's careers, and the fate of their respective reputations, arguing that Lloyd George's major achievements have been undeservedly overshadowed, in part as a consequence of Churchill's later mythmaking. It is a major work from a brilliant young historian.
Download or read book The Fall of Lloyd George written by Michael Kinnear and published by London : Macmillan Press. This book was released on 1973 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book analyses one of the most dramatic episodes in the transformation of British politics immediately after the First World War. Before 1914 Liberals and Conservatives had vied for power, whereas after the 'red letter' election of 1924 the polarisation was effectively between Labour and the Conservatives. In the intervening decade the balance of probability favoured the emergence of a three-party system, but this system failed to develop primarily because of serious tactical mistakes during 1922 by the chief Conservative supporters of Lloyd George's coalition, and also because of mistakes by the Liberal leaders over a longer period. Michael Kinner has investigated political activity in virtually every constituency during the early 1920s, and he demonstrates that although the Conservatives distrusted Llyod George because of their dissatisfaction with the weak and evasive leadership of their party by Austen Chamberlain. The author shows that Chamberlain wobbled several times during 1922 over the future of the coalition, and that it was Chamberlain, rather than Sir George Younger, who was behind dissent over the abortive election of January 1922. This study indicates that even after they had toppled Llyod George ant the Carlton Club Meeting of 19 October 1922 most Conservative M.P.s favoured an alliance with his Liberal followers. They did not finally discard such an alliance until after their narrow victory in the 1922 election. Two appendixes examine the position at the Carlton Club Meeting of each Conservative M.P.; and the nationwide pattern of alliance and conflict between Conservative and Liberals in the confused election of 1922."-Publisher.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lloyd George the Man and His Story A year before the war broke out, while he was still bitterly hated by the Conservatives, I was visiting him at his Welsh home near Llanystumdwy and he asked me what I thought of the district. I said it was all very beautiful, as indeed it was. I emphasized my apprecia tion by saying that the visitors at the big hotel at Criccieth near by were one and all enchanted. They were nearly all Conservatives, I pointed out, and there was just one fly in their ointment. I know it, said Lloyd George, vivaciously, with a quick twinkle in his eye. Here's a bay like the Bay of Naples, God's great mountains behind, beautiful woods, and green meadows, and trickling streams - everything the heart of man can desire, and in the midst of it all HE lives.
