    The Happy Warrior
    The life story in picture-strip of Sir Winston Churchill
    48 pages in colour
    An Eagle book 6s.

    Told by Clifford Makins
    Drawn by Frank Bellamy
    Published 1958

    Back in the late 1970s I bought this book from a church jumble sale for a few pence.
    It was 20 years old then. It's a great way for a youngster -as I was back -then to learn an outline of the life of Winston Churchill & a basic outline of WW2 , from a mainly British viewpoint.
    It's been sat in a box in the loft for the last few years .
    I'm taken photos of it & posted them in an album.
    To read the text - in the Gallery click the black box marked ''options'' & choose 'View All Sizes'' in the drop down menu & select Large.

    Are any members going to admit they are old enough to remember reading this when it was in the Eagle comic ?
