Dr. Andrew Roberts, Winston Churchill biographer, will visit McLennan Community College for a free presentation open to the public. Although this is a free event, tickets are required. Tickets will be released at noon Wednesday, Jan. 16, through Eventbrite at https://churchillbiographer.eventbrite.com.
Dr. Roberts’ latest book, a biography of Sir Winston Churchill, was released in the United States in November and has been hailed by the Wall Street Journal as "unarguably the best single-volume biography of the man." For "Churchill: Walking with Destiny," Roberts draws from 40 new sources, including the private diaries of King George VI recorded during World War II.
Providing the opportunity for MCC students to meet and hear from this caliber of historian fits the purpose of the College: to engage, educate, and enrich its community. Copies of Roberts' most recent book will be available for purchase at the MCC Bookstore located in the Michaelis Academic Center on campus. Books will also be available at the event, and Roberts will sign copies at the conclusion of the event.
