To my amazement, I won the Times Higher Education Supplement's Young Academic Author of the Year Award last week. Here is a picture of me with Gerard Kelly (left), editor of the THES, and Bill Rammell, the Minister for Higher Education.
Praise for "Lloyd George and Churchill: Rivals for Greatness"
"Richard Toye's double biography of Lloyd George and Churchill has caught readers' imagination."
- Michael Gove, The Times, 22 May 2007
"[A]dmirably nuanced and just"
- Max Hastings, The Sunday Times, 18 March 2007
"[E]xhaustive and scholarly [...] Toye has deployed an astonishingly wide range of sources [...] His book is a mine of fascinating material which will be unfamiliar even to readers who think they know their Lloyd George and Churchill pretty well. "
- John Campbell, The Sunday Telegraph, 15 April 2007
"Toye has written a fine and nuanced study of a volatile relationship."
- A.W. Purdue, The Times Higher Education Supplement, 18 May 2007
