Official biographies by Randolph Churchill and Martin Gilbert

The Churchill family controls many of the documents and has authorized an 8-volume official biography. It was started by his son Randolph Churchill (1911–1968) and finished after his death by Martin Gilbert (1936–2015), a scholar at Oxford. It included "Companion volumes" filled with original sources. The total is 28 volumes with over 30,000 pages and many illustrations. The detail is so thorough and minute that the broader context is obscure and hard to follow.
