	The Writing of Lord Randolph Churchill - The Churchill Centre
		If Lord Randolph Churchill had lived a normal lifespan, he might have smothered his more illustrious son's political career in its infancy but, as it was, the father's premature death was a major motivating factor in Winston's decision to "pursue his [father's] aims and vindicate his memory."
		His aggression, stubbornness, resentment of authority and rebelliousness were apparent early in his life and continued throughout a tumultuous political career, culminating in the 1940 cry of "we shall never surrender." On the other hand, his filial idealization was obsessive and his early life was devoted to exonerating his father politically.
		On publication in January 1906, Lord Randolph Churchill received considerable attention as might be expected of a work by a rising young politician with an established literary reputation about one of the most remarkable leaders of the previous generation.

		For Churchill during those years, the House of Commons was possibly everything from a lion's den or a circus to Mt. Everest but it certainly wasn't a safe harbor.
