The reader does not require a scientific background to follow the gist of the narrative.
The author was born and raised in the "Milwaukee of England", the beer town of Burton on Trent in Staffordshire, the son of a policeman. After winning a scholarship to the local Grammar School Keith then graduated at age 16 and entered into a pupilship to be trained as a Gas Engineer.
He resigned from the Gas Corporation after three years and took advantage of another scholarship to enter the University of Leeds, in Yorkshire, as a BSc student in Chemical Engineering. Keith was awarded a scholarship by the DSIR, Department of Scientific Research and Development that covered his course work for a PhD in Chemical Engineering. He then emigrated to the USA with his young family and joined the Engineering Research Division of the Du Pont Company in Wilmington Delaware. Rising through the ranks he became a Senior Research Supervisor and then a Senior Research Associate retiring after 35 years service with 6 patents to his name.
During the first 15 years or so of retirement Keith operated a sailing school teaching classes in the Chesapeake Bay and the British Virgin Islands on the family sail boat "Majjik III". During this time he sailed through the Bermuda triangle 28 times without any major hiccups!
Retiring from these activities the author visited the National Archives in the United Kingdom and initiated a research project on the United Kingdom's World War 2 atomic bomb project. Unexpectedly Keith discovered that a UK chemical company, known then as Imperial Chemical Industries, (ICI) and known now as Astra-Zeneca, manufactured enough fissionable uranium to make several atomic bombs before the USA's Manhattan Project got underway. As a result Churchill was able to gain control of the USA's plutonium bomb. The author explains how this came about and connecting the dots shows that this influenced not only the start or the War in Europe but also the War in the Pacific against Japan.
The author feels privileged to communicate this to the wider world. It was truly "Churchill's Greatest Secret". The book is part biographical, part substantiated fact and part speculative since the author was compelled to speculate on what must have taken place as a consequence of Churchill possessing the means to make several atomic bombs. The majority of the 28 images, of once top secret documents, are being published for the first time.
The author is fortunate to live with his wife of many years and in close proximity to his four children, their spouses and seven grandchildren.
