Reviews

Sets a new standard for political biography. Exhaustively researched and covering every aspect of the career of this at once confessional and elusive personality, it will surely be the standard work on the subject for many years to come. - John Gray, New Statesman A beautifully proportioned work, sound in its judgements and psychologically acute. It constitutes a major contribution to contemporary history, one of the best biographies indeed of recent years. - Vernon Bogdanor, Times Higher Educational Supplement Scholarly and percipient - essential reading for all students of recent Conservative history. This admirable biography has done him full justice and is unlikely to be replaced for many years. - Robert Blake, Times Literary Supplement An excellent book about one of the stranger political careers of modern times - they succeed in bringing out the charm adn attraction of a politician who dared to believe that ideas are the most potent forces in life. - Anthony Howard, Sunday Times
