I read "Churchill" by Paul Johnson.

WInston Churchill was born the half-American son of a British aristocrat. He would go on to become a prisoner of war and war hero, prolific writer, painter, and public speaker, and most notably, the prime minister of Englad during World War 2, when they most needed him.

He lived a full life and there is much to be learned from his life.
