About the Book

The third volume of John Grigg’s highly acclaimed biography of Lloyd George. Covering the period 1912-16, From Peace to War begins when Lloyd George is at the pinnacle of success and achievement. Yet in the following two years he is plunged into turmoil in both his personal and political life. With his career threatened by financial scandal, he enters a liaison with a woman half his age, and is faced with fresh and demanding issues regarding Liberal social reform and the question of Irish settlement. With the outbreak of European war the whole course of his life is altered and within weeks he is transformed into a great war minister. As Minister of Munitions he carries through what is almost another Industrial Revolution, but his imaginative views on strategy bring him into conflict with the professional warlords. Eventually his dissatisfaction with the higher direction of the war leads to an act of revolt which brings down the Asquith government and results in his own appointment as Prime Minister. John Grigg describes this momentous phase of his life with great drama, bringing vividly to life a landmark era of British political history and the man who shaped it.
