Just put the words "Winston Churchill" in the Bookshare "search" space without designation as author or title and see what turns up.

Hi Amy and all,
Does anyone know of a good biography on Churchill, preferably one that's
already on Bookshare? I know something about him in terms of his role in
history, but very little if anything about what kind of person he was.
Recently I read a book on F.D.R., and it was much more interesting than I
had anticipated. With the things I've been reading lately, it strikes me as
amazing that history could be made as boring as it was in school. <lol> I
don't like strings of events and dates and random names, but I like
exploring how events and ideas shape people--and vice versa--if any era. I
find this much more meaningful than the names and dates that were emphasized
in school, and I also remember it far better.
