I need help citing this document

I have to cite this document, but I don't know how...

http://www.winstonchurchill.org/images/pdfs/for_educators/Gilbert%20TCC%20Lecture%20CHURCHILL%20AND%20BOMBING%20POLICY.pdf

Gilbert, Martin. "Churchill and Bombing Policy" The Fifth Churchill Centre Lecture. Washington, D.C. 2005

This is how they quoted it in the cite, and I think this citation is for later in section F...

but if I want to put it in footnote, what do I have to do?

1) First of all, I don't get the text type of this... It is apparently a lecture note, but where does it belong in MLA? a book published in internet? a lecture? (I don't think it's lecture)

2) how would I put the page number if it is a lecture?

3) please help me to write a foot note for that source. I can do the others by myself, but this one really confuses me..

Thank you!! and please help, tomorrow is my final deadline.

Hi,

I would cite that as an online artilce. Thus you would cite the page numbers normally. Go to this link and under MLA you should find links that will guide you to cite articles If your still having trouble feel free to ask again.

hey, thanks for ur reply!

but Ive been working on Chicago style for awhile right now, so it's kinda late to change everything (i have some 30 footnotes)

still, what do you think of my footnote for that 'lecture'?

2. Martin Gilbert, Churchill and Bombing Policy, 6.

I just assumed it as a book published online... do you think it can work?

I wouldn't treat it as a book. Its either a lecture or an article. I think this should be appropriate: http://www.bibme.org/citation-guide/Chicago/lecture
