Completely right.
I think Churchill makes a lot more sense as a late Victorian, who still fundamentally saw the world as a late Victorian would - who happened to be prime minister in the mid twentieth century.

Pet peeve: talk of millennials, gen X etc is silly. A better qn (if you want one) is Napoleon's: how did the world look to someone aged 20? One born in 65 saw mass unemployment at 20; one in 1980 had a boom, internet & mobile phones. Yet both are called gen X. This is daft.
