The best-selling six-volume history that helped gain Churchill a Nobel Prize for literature. Published first in the U.S., the ensuing English edition contained numerous corrections and even a few additional maps. This is a variant binding of one of the more attractive reprint editions of Churchill's war memoirs. Usually found in brown quarter-morocco leather, this variant is bound in blue leatherette with elaborate gold tooling including Churchill's facsimile signature on each front cover. Printed in twelve volumes, rather than the original six, the text includes most of Churchill's final revisions to this much-revised history and is more profusely illustrated than virtually any other edition. Each volume has decorative endpapers and a ribbon marker.The set is in very good condition, virtually mint, save for an elaborate bookplate on each pastedown and chips to the spine head of Volume X and the front cover edge of Volume XI. Third English Illustrated ?Heron? Edition. 16mo (4500+pages, illustrated with maps and plans) (Cohen A240.19) (Woods A123m). …
