Churchill's Little Redhead (Sandys Celia)(Pevná vazba)

Churchill's Little Redhead is the autobiography of much-travelled author and television presenter, Celia Sandys, Winston Churchill's granddaughter. In 1959 she accompanied her grandparents on the 'Christina', Aristotle Onassis's superyacht, for a grand tour of the Mediterranean with another guest, the legendary diva, Maria Callas. During the extraordinary journey, sixteen-year-old Celia witnessed the burgeoning romance between Onassis and Callas, a love affair which resulted in two divorces within a year. Celia was born in war-ravaged London in 1943, the daughter of Duncan Sandys, her grandfather's Minister of Supply in his war cabinet, and Diana Churchill. Celia recalls in much detail post-war rationing and the make-do atmosphere that prevailed at the time. In her spirited book she describes the ups and downs of her three marriages, from which she bore three sons and a daughter.
