Media Reviews
*'Informative and always easy to read ... Hattersley has done a fine job Andrew Lycett, SUNDAY TIMES Well written and wide ranging book ... his account of the period is consistently enjoyable Piers Brendon, DAILY TELEGRAPH Hattersley makes a riveting case ... a bold, sweeping synthesis ... full of gleaming nuggets and offbeat points redolent of hours hunched over neglected papers. It is no surprise to readers of his journalism that it is superbly written, gleefully but wryly highlighting the absurdities and pomposities of the age ... Hattersley's prose flows smooth as the port at a Sandringham shooting party. What makes this book is not just the quality of its social and political analysis, but the breadth of detail and the quality of its gossipy anecdotes Colin Donald, HERALD [A] solid book ... Hattersley writes entertainingly ... He is a clear and vigorous writer Anne Chisholm, SUNDAY TELEGRAPH
