Winston Churchill's quest for his inner self took two forms: a constant thirst for exotic travel and a passion for the exuberance of painting and the beauty of words. His granddaughter, Celia Sandys, traveled extensively with Churchill towards the end of his life. Now, in this intimate portrait, she follows in her grandfather's footsteps, traveling to France, Cuba, South Africa, the United States, Egypt and Morocco to discover the real man behind the famous facade.
