Dear Mr Smith,
Many thanks for the link to this very informative review.
I was intrigued by a passage :
' As a cousin of Winston observed at the time: “Few fathers have done less
for their sons. Few sons have done more for their fathers.” '
I googled the quote, but only got the Wall Street Journal reference.
Who is that cousin (Clare Sheridan ?) Where is the source of the quote, I
wonder ?
With all best wishes,

Dear All,
Following the highly publicised recent sale of Churchill’s wartime picture
of Marrakech offered to President Roosevelt, I wonder if anyone knows what
has become of another gift to the President as reported in Pawle’s _The War
and Colonel Warden_ (p. 174) : ‘a complete set of his own books, which he
had had magnificently bound in red leather by the London firm of Sangorski
and Sutcliffe’.

Dear All,
I am continuing with my English version of my Dictionnaire Churchill.
I am now tackling "Churchill and 'Europe' ", and I stumble upon a difficulty
which I had not spotted when preparing the French edition :
Did his speech in Metz take place on 14 or 15 July 1946 ?
His collection of speeches for 1946, _The Sinews of War_ says 14 (p.171) -
so does RR James in his Complete Speeches (p. 7357), probably culled from
_The Sinews of War_, however.
But the OB reads : "Churchill spoke, first in Luxembourg on July 14, and on
the following day in Metz".
Gilbert, Martin. Winston S. Churchill: Never Despair, 1945–1965 (Volume
VIII, p. 246).
Is there any way to tell who is right ?

RE: Churchill's speech in Metz in July 1946
Dear Antoine,
The envelope containing Churchill's speech notes (attached) suggest it was 14 July.
