November 20, 2010

Saturday, November 20, 2010 – 6:00 PM

Location: The Park Hill Golf Club in Denver

Drawing from the groundbreaking work of Michael McMenamin and Curt Zoller in their 2007 book Becoming Winston Churchill: The Untold Story of Winston Churchill’s American Mentor, and other sources, our own RMC member Everett Engstrom will explore the fascinating and moving story of a friendship that profoundly influenced Winston Churchill and possibly even the course of history.

Bourke Cockran was a wealthy, cultured and charismatic attorney and politician. Nationally acclaimed as one of the great orators of his day, there seemed no limits to how far Cockran’s career might take him. At his mother Jennie’s instigation, Winston would meet Bourke Cochran on his first trip to America at the age of twenty. The two began a unique friendship that Winston would credit with making him the great orator that he ultimately became.
