Winston Churchill: His Times, His Crimes is a book by British-Pakistani writer, journalist, political activist and historian Tariq Ali.
In it, Ali discusses Winston Churchill's racial and imperialist views.
Synopsis
The book is described as "A coruscating portrait of Britain’s greatest imperialist" by its publisher Verso.[1]
Reception
Historian Andrew Roberts was highly critical of the book, stating that the book "makes so many basic factual errors that Churchill’s reputation emerges unscathed from this onslaught", and that the "quality of Ali’s research is so execrable that he even cites the fictional TV series Peaky Blinders as a source".[2] Simil
