Reviews

'Neil Marten was one of a small but courageous group of Conservative MPs who deplored the Heath administration's decision to take Britain into the Common Market without keeping the promise to secure the 'full hearted consent' of parliament and the people. His diaries give a precious insight into the fierce opposition that would, almost half a century later, grow into Brexit.' Simon Heffer 'A treasure.' Dr Richard Johnson, Senior Lecturer, School of Politics and International Relations, Queen Mary, University of London.
