Lyons began his study of Churchill with his dissertation “Building the Temple of Peace: The Statesmanship of Winston Churchill.” He is the author of the article “The Temple and the Tower: Winston Churchill on the Political Language of Peace” Perspectives on Political Science (Winter 2004), has a forthcoming article on Churchills rhetoric, and is working on a book-length study of Churchill as a political thinker. His editorial, “Remembering Winston Churchill: A Possession for All Time” appears on the Ashbrook website and has been reprinted in Finest Hour: Journal of the Churchill Centre and Societies (Summer 2005). Professor Lyons teaches an upper-level seminar on Churchill at Ashland University as well as leading a university summer trip to England entitled “The England of Shakespeare and Churchill.”
