Winston Churchill (1871-1947) was an American novelist, often confused with the British Prime Minister during WWI. Famous long before the British Churchill, his second novel, Richard Carvel, sold as many as two million copies in a nation of only 76 million. The Crossing, his fifth novel, was set in the America of Lewis and Clark, Daniel Boone, and General Andrew Jackson.
