Memories of Margaret Thatcher: A portrait Reprint Edition

Margaret Thatcher is a British icon. There is no denying her place in history as Britain’s greatest peacetime Prime Minister.

In this centenary year of her birth, she still bestrides the political scene, both in Britain and around the world, like a colossus.

Memories of Margaret Thatcher brings together over 200 personal reminiscences and anecdotes from those who – whether political friends or opponents – experienced close encounters with the Iron Lady.

They include, among others, Ronald Reagan, Helmut Kohl, Norman Tebbit, Cecil Parkinson, Matthew Parris, Michael Howard, Paddy Ashdown, Adam Boulton, Lord Ashcroft, Sebastian Coe, Boris Johnson, Ann Widdecombe, William Hague, Sir Bernard Ingham, Barbara Taylor Bradford, Esther Rantzen, Dame Ann Leslie, David Davis, Liam Fox and many more.

Amusing, revealing, sympathetic and occasionally antagonistic, these observations combine to give a unique portrait of the political and personal life of a remarkable figure. They show the deeply private and compassionate nature of a woman who will be forever known as the Iron Lady.
