Serendipity

As I have researched biographies for Chautauqua presentations, I sometimes note with surprise the related information that just pops up unexpectedly.

This happened just yesterday with my Churchill research.   While dropping off a few things at a local thrift shop, I took a look through the used book collection for texts by or about Churchill.  The only one that caught my eye was Reflected Glory, and when I pulled it from the shelf, I found it was the biography of Churchill’s daughter-in-law with a plethera of WSC references.

“Chance favors the prepared mind.”  As I live with Winston day by day, I wonder what other coincidences will present themselves to further my understanding.  We’ll see.
