A very good copy of this collection of speeches made by Winston Churchill over the years 1949-1950.  They cover a wide range of topics, domestic and foreign, and offer a running commentary on political events of the age.  This is a handsome private library volume, with a binding by Bayntun (Rivière) of Bath, England.
