LRB Article PDF: Short Cuts (LRB volume 29 number 11, 7 June 2007)

Disraeli and Churchill were both scribbling before they entered Parliament, and Churchill ended with more than one small fortune through some startling and, on occasion, clandestine publishing and movie contracts, as David Reynolds has shown in his riveting In Command of History.
