I have the entire 8-volume biography. It is from several publishers, so it is in various forms, from hard- to paperback. That's okay with me since I am not a collector, just an avid reader of the jolly old gent. As long as I have to entire content, I am happy. I also have the companion volumes for bio vols. 1-3. The problem I am having is with the remainder. I know that many are available from Hillsdale, but the descriptions don't match this from the original bio companions. I also know that I cannot afford the WWII companions as I have searched for these and have not found them in my price range (being a retired public school teacher). I can, however quite well afford the Hillsdale editions. But that is where the confusion over their arrangement and descriptions begin to confuse me. Can someone help me so I can once again sleep at night rather than lying there in a muddled state? My thanks would be profound.

Sandy Finlayson writes: "Is there any news on when the next Churchill Documents volume will be released?" The printer expects to ship Volume 22 ("The Opposition Years," August 1945-October 1951) in July. Let's say availability by September. The final Volume 23 ("Never Flinch, Never Weary," November 1951-January 1965) will appear in the autumn. Like previous volumes, each will sell for only $60, well under cost, but commercial considerations are not the priority. All volumes to date are available from Hillsdale College Bookstore. Both volumes, well over 2500 pages, use a special paper designed to be thin enough to bind, but not so thin as to cause "bleed-through" from print on the other side. Late last March, all of us proofreaders, kibitzers and editors read the final document (Lady Churchill to Prime Minister Harold Wilson, 9 February 1965), and suddenly realized: IT'S OVER. The longest biography on the planet, 15 million words, has ended, 57 years after Randolph Churchill set to work. If he were here, I said on the recent Hillsdale Cruise, he would probably say, "What took you so long?" Well, what took so long was that Martin Gilbert found one huge pile of stuff. There is a "wodge" of documents virtually for every day of Churchill's life. We had a gala banquet in London to celebrate Randolph, Martin, Dr. Larry Arnn and the Great Work, attended by all who had a hand in it. Among them was Lady Gilbert (Esther), who spoke eloquently of Martin, whose memory we cherish across the years. Her remarks and others will be up on winstonchurchill.hillsdale.edu shortly. It was a moment. Now this is not the end, or even the beginning of the end. Plans are afoot for further works, including a new edition of the Collected Essays???expanded from the original four volumes to many more, thanks to new material in the Ronald Cohen collection and the Gilbert Papers, now acquired by Hillsdale. Some of it represents an "unknown canon" of obscure Churchill works, not seen since first publication. Like the OB, there will be electronic as well as print editions, and an expanded online facility to ease research for students and scholars. If anyone would like to help support this great work, and have their name on the wall in our new Archives Atrium, please contact me at [email protected]. Richard M.
