You'll see a lot of pictures of Churchill with a walking stick. That is not a
cane as we think it; it was (and is) a fashion accessory, same utility as a top
hat. Not carried for mobility reasons. I recall the Prince of Wales gave WSC
a walking stick as a wedding present.

ore and more of newspaper
archives are online now; it's really getting easier.
But the black coat and the khaki of the troops - it makes one think this was

To call someone a "sot" was a form of cheap shot in Churchill's day. It meant
(a) the person accused had been known to partake in one of civilization's great
pleasures, (b) the accuser didn't like the accused and could claim he stole the

Doesn't surprise me. When you look at his other accomplishments, it's quite
amazing. They were both workoholics - Napoleon was known to dictate to
several secretaries on different subjects at once - a feat WSC didn't (to my
