The best book yet written about Lady Thatcher * Daily Telegraph *
A winnerWhatever your views on the grocer's daughter, I defy you not to enjoy it * Daily Mail *
'A triumph' * Spectator *
'A superbly researched biography... unlike so many others is neither hagiography nor hatchet-job, and probably gets closer to the truth than any... magnificently told' * Sunday Express *
'A fascinating account... Campbell's research is as exhaustive as it is meticulous' * Observer *
