One of the most charismatic and controversial of British politicians, David Lloyd George had a profound impact on the country, as a Welsh radical, as an Edwardian social reformer, and as "the man who won the war." This study assesses his successes and failures and uses a close examination of the political circumstances in which he operated to explain the many twists and turns of his remarkable career. It also puts his actions in the context of his complicated relationship with Liberalism and the Liberal Party in an attempt to understand his underlying approach to politics. He was centrally involved in all the major national issues of the early 20th century, and in the aftermath of World War I he played a crucial role at the Versailles peace conference and on the world scene of the early 1920s. His life is fascinating in itself and highly valuable as a means to understanding a crucial era in British history.
