Description

Winston S. Churchill

Liberalism and the Social Problem. London: Hodder & Stoughton, 1909


8vo. Minor toning. Original red cloth, cover and spine gilt-lettered.


FIRST ENGLISH EDITION


This was Churchill's first widely-distributed hardcover collection of political speeches, many of them expressing "radical" Liberal views that were quite advanced for his time, prefiguring the modern social safety net that Churchill and David Lloyd George would set in motion.
