"Lloyd George: The Man and His Story" by Frank Dilnot is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the life and political career of David Lloyd George, the Prime Minister of England, focusing on his rise from humble beginnings to becoming a significant figure in British politics during a critical time in the nation's history. The narrative aims to capture both the personal and public dimensions of Lloyd George's character, making it a compelling study for those interested in political leadership and social reform. At the start of the work, the author introduces Lloyd George's family background, detailing how his uncle, Richard Lloyd, a village cobbler in North Wales, provided for him after the death of his father. This act of kindness sets the stage for Lloyd George's upbringing in a modest but nurturing environment where he developed his wit and ambition. Dilnot presents anecdotes from Lloyd George's younger years, illustrating his rebellious spirit and his early awareness of social injustices, which would later fuel his political activism. The opening portion establishes a foundation for understanding the complexities of Lloyd George's character and foreshadows the dramatic political battles he would engage in throughout his career.
