David Stafford on Clare Sheridan

[Richard Langworth]

Enjoy the latest from The Churchill Project.

Clare Sheridan: “The nearest thing to a sister that Winston ever had.” By DAVID STAFFORD, Monday, March 23, 2020 8:08 AM He died in 1965 and Clare followed him five years later. Their relationship has been side-lined or ignored by many biographers more interested in politics than in Churchill’s private life. But the bust made by the “Obstreperous Anarchist” forever stands in the hallway of Chartwell. It is mute testimony to a family friendship that endured through tempestuous times. Dr. Stafford is author of Oblivion or Glory, 1921 and the Making of Winston Churchill, reviewed by W.J. Shepherd for the Hillsdale Churchill Project.

Great to hear that David Stafford is still around. I totally lost track of him. One of my pipe dreams was to enroll in one of the summer programs at the University of Edinburg WWII Studies and have Stafford as a lecturer. Is he still there, do you know?
