TLS signed “WSC,” one page, 7.5 x 9.5, May 5, 1949. Letter to his literary assistant William Deakin, in part: "By sitting up very late several nights, I have finished Volume 3, and the last chapters come back from the Printer tomorrow. You should look through again on the Russian chapters and the last five or six of the Book which I have reshuffled largely in accordance with your suggestions. It is possible that there may be some repetitions, as I have not had the chapter 'Closer Relations with Russia' reprinted yet. I am quite clear it should not run on after the Declaration of War and that extra matter should be shoved forward…Please look through these closing chapters and let me know of any unintentional omission or duplications on my part." In fine condition. Generally considered Churchill's greatest literary work, The Second World War was largely responsible for his receipt of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1953.
