Description

‘Gladstone and Disraeli never had to put up with this’, Prime Minister Harold Macmillan in an aside at the Conservative Party Conference in 1962. Concise, sharp-witted and entertaining: the lives of 54 British Prime Ministers, from Sir Robert Walpole to Theresa May. From statesmen and giants of Parliamentary oratory to graft, flattery and the greasy pole. A must-read aide memoire of the development of the role and responsibilities of Prime Ministers across almost 300 years. With a satiric eye on the personalities and politics of the greatest office in the land. With black and white caricatures by Martin Rowson (b.1959).
