Out of Stone
The Churchill Estate (as well as British Institutions like BBC, British Library and British Pathe that don't allow downloads) are extremely possessive of archive material. There is a substantial amount of British pre-1950 spoken word recordings from the arts, to politicians to royalty - nearly all were put onto 78s for public consumption, so it's OUR heritage. Yet there's no single accessible source for them - they're spread all over the place, so it's good that these Churchill recordings, at least, are freely available.

you can't judge people from the present perspective, you would have had to be there. HOWEVER HE'S GIVEN CRETINS (like tollundisim below) THE RIGHT TO MAKE AN UTTER T##T OF THEMSELVES.
Churchill Revisited
KeenanP
First of all, I want to thank the people who created this collection. It is indeed a wonderful public collection. Secondly, I'm not going to claim that Churchill wore panties. I have no idea if he did or didn't and I don't see what it matters anyway. Churchill was the best wartime leader the British could have had, but, please remember, that Winston Churchill was so "gung ho" about the British Empire he 1) sent the Black & Tans over to Ireland. 2) Refused talking to Gandhi and the other Indian Leaders about India Independence 3) Carved up the Middle East into the form we all know and love so well these days. But I will give this collection a 5 star rating because it is a very good collection.
the greatest PM of all time. Stop trying to re-write history
Reader
Don’t care for all this pc bs. Stop trying to demonise this man. Using modern comparisons and half baked out of context facts. Without him most the people against him who dare call themselves liberals/ socialists would have probably not been born. Listen to his speeches as a start you might actually learn something, he did what he did so you have the choice to.

These speeches show what a brilliant and prescient man the world had in Winston Churchill. It is truly tragic that, like so many before and after, people refused to believe his words until too late. Fortunately, there was a happy ending to the story, but not before millions died. Were his words heeded, one must wonder what the outcome might have been.
Nonsense
Steve_Cook
There is an awful lot of nonsense and unverified claims and suggestions among the reviews. Please would people actually think before posting nonsense, such as "....he wore panties." This is actually an immensely useful archive collection. I have listened with great care over the time it has been available and find nothing which is questionable regarding the content.
Several Issues
Ramsden
1) May I suggest that someone edit these reviews and remove the especially moronic ones. 2) May I suggest attaching dates to these speeches. They are random rather than chronological. 3) Thank you Poe for at least one intelligent appraisal of Churchill's stature. 4) I'm reading "Winston's War" presently and it is very good (historical fiction).
Must listen
Bill Cosby
Many younger folks have been taught that Churchill was a just a cisgenderer priveledged white nationalist who advocated genocide in India and must therefore be despised. However they still owe it to themselves to actually listen to him in his own words. That way they can better criticise him and Western civilization.
