CHURCHILL, The Rt Hon Winston S
India. Speeches and an Introduction.
London Thornton Butterworth Ltd. 1931. . First paperback edition published simultaneously with the cloth edition; 8vo 18.5 x 12.5 cm; a little spotting to edges and first and last few leaves discreet pencil underlining to first few text pages; publisher's orange wrappers spine slightly faded as typical very slightly slanted else a smart very good copy; 140 4 pp.<br /> The first paperback issue published simultaneously with the hardback of Churchill's scarce set of speeches on India and Gandhi in crisp and handsome condition.<br /><br />The speeches originate from an episode in the author's early political career when in January 1931 Churchill resigned from the Conservative Shadow Cabinet because Baldwin supported the decision of the Labour government to grant Dominion status to India. Churchill believed that enhanced home rule status would hasten calls for full independence which it did course. He was particularly opposed to Mohandas Gandhi whom he considered 'a seditious Middle Temple lawyer now posing as a faki'. His views enraged Labour and Liberal opinion although he was supported by many grass root Conservatives.<br /> Woods A38. London, Thornton Butterworth, Ltd., 1931. paperback

CHURCHILL, Winston S; BIRLEY, Oswald; [CASEY, Richard Gavin Gardiner (The Right Honourable The Lord Casey, KG, GCMG, CH, DSO, MC
SIGNED PRESENTATION PORTRAIT
Photographic portrait. 1952. A large photographic reproduction of the 1951 Trinity House portrait by Sir Oswald Birley. Inscribed to the lower margin in black ink by Winston Churchill during his second term as British Prime Minister "With many thanks / from your old friend / Winston S. Churchill / 1952". Measuring 37 x 30 cm. In excellent condition with minor creasing to the corners and toning to the margin edges the inscription and photograph bright and without fading. Contemporary dark wood frame glazed. A scarce image in inscribed state. In April 1951 the maritime authority Trinity House commissioned the distinguished portrait painter Oswald Birley to depict Winston Churchill as an Elder Brother of the Corporation. Churchill had held this prestigious association since his service as First Lord of the Admiralty before and during the First World War. His connection with Trinity House remained a visible and symbolic one: Churchill was frequently photographed wearing the distinctive Trinity House cap or uniform particularly during naval inspections and maritime visits throughout the Second World War. The recipient of this particularly warm prime-ministerial presentation was the eminent Australian statesman Lord Casey Richard Gavin Gardiner Casey 18901976. One of the most distinguished figures in twentieth-century Australian public life Casey enjoyed a remarkable career in imperial and international service. He served as an army officer in the First World War later entering politics as a cabinet minister and subsequently representing Australia as Ambassador to the United States. During the Second World War he sat in Churchill's War Cabinet and later held the office of Governor of Bengal. His long career of public service culminated in his appointment as the 16th Governor-General of Australia serving from 1965 to 1969. Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request. Lucius Books welcomes direct contact with our customers. Photographic portrait. 1952 unknown
