OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Monday 2nd March, Heather and I thoroughly enjoyed this exhibit. We only had a few hours in London so had to be judicious with our sightseeing. I captured these photos as we navigated our way around the exhibit.  

The Churchill War Rooms are located in Clive Steps, King Charles Street, London. The wonderfully comprehensive exhibition on display begins in 1940 when Winston Churchill was 65 years old and war was raging across Europe.

The Second World War won Churchill his place in history. As Prime Minister, he led Britain from near-defeat to final victory. In doing so, he became a symbol of what strong leadership should be. 

If his life had ended a few years before, he might have only been remembered as a brilliant failure, a controversial politician who never reached his full potential, and who made as many enemies as friends. 

So glad we visited Churchill War Rooms!
