Zusammenfassung
The feel-good place to buy books
Splendid! Splendid! by Garnett
Willie Whitelaw (1918-99) was a popular politician, even though he was involved in policies which have caused lasting bitterness. This biography, based on extensive interviews, offers new insights into such incidents as Whitelaw's secret talks with the IRA and the rise and fall of Margaret Thatcher. Written with his full co-operation, this biography reveals the man behind the affable public persona. It is a portrait of a unique individual - shrewd, good-natured, public spirited and loyal. At the same time, it discloses his flaws - his explosive temper, his love of intrigue, and his anxiety to be all things to all men.
Mark Garnett is co-author of Whatever Happened to the Tories (1997) and Keith Joseph: A Life (2001) Ian Aitken has written for the Guardian since 1964
