From a Photograph by Miss Olive Edis, F.R.P.S., specially taken for this book at 10, Downing Street, October 15, 1917. D Lloyd George (Signature)
THE
PRIME MINISTER
HAROLD SPENDER
“Who, if he be called upon to face
Some awful moment to which Heaven has joined
Great issues, good or bad, for human kind,
Is happy as a Lover; and attired
With sudden brightness, like a Man inspired.”
The Happy Warrior.
