Lady Clementine : a novel / Marie Benedict.

Benedict, Marie, (author.).

Summary:

"In 1909, Clementine steps off a train with her new husband, Winston. An angry woman emerges from the crowd to attack, shoving him in the direction of an oncoming train. Just before he stumbles, Clementine grabs him by his suit jacket. This will not be the last time Clementine Churchill will save her husband. Lady Clementine is the ferocious story of the ambitious woman beside Winston Churchill, the story of a partner who did not flinch through the sweeping darkness of war, and who would not surrender either to expectations or to enemies" -- Publisher's website.
"Lady Clementine Churchill did not flinch through the sweeping darkness of war, and would not surrender either to expectations or to enemies. Her scandalous childhood, her unexpected role as a social outsider, her maternal insecurities, and the daily struggles she faced to smooth her husband's political blunders were only a part of her private world. As Winston Churchill's wife, Clementine was a brilliant woman whose impact and influence on world events deserves to be known" -- adapted from Amazon.com info.
