Passion:
Travelling in Search of History

For more than fifty years, Martin Gilbert has been travelling the world in search of people and documents to illuminate his quest for Jewish historical facts and enigmas.

Today he shares some of the untold stories behind his fascinating books.

Sir Martin Gilbert is Winston Churchill's official biographer and a leading historian of the modern world. He is the author of seventy-seven books, among them Churchill: A Life, his twin histories First World War and Second World War, a comprehensive History of Israel, and A History of the Twentieth Century. His book The Holocaust: The Jewish Tragedy is a classic work on the subject.
