Dare to be a DanielCD by Benn Tony
In Dare to be a Daniel, Tony Benn feelingly recalls his years experiencing the agonies of adolescence and of school, where boys were taught to 'keep their minds clean', and the shadow of fascism and war with its disruption and family loss; and describes his emergence from the war as a keen socialist about to embark upon marriage and an unknown political future. This warm, affectionate and funny account reveals the childhood of a radical national political figure and shows how early influences have shaped the commitments and beliefs he holds today.
These three wonderful hours are crammed with so many formative memories, often recalled with a laugh in Benn's familiar voice Rachel Redford, Observer This is a glorious memoir, full of anecdotes about quirky relatives-- Sue Arnold The Guardian
