Artikelbeschreibung
The author, himself a former MP, describes the careers of four ambitious young politicians taking their seats in the House of Commons in the 1960s and locked in a fierce battle for power over the next three decades (the story was written in 1984 but continues into 1991). Their wives and families, too, are caught up into this explosive game in which only one man can gain the top prize, the office of Prime Minister. - A true cliffhanger and very readable book from the storyline point of view, it is also worth reading for its detailed insight into the mechanics of the British political system. Early edition, including the political cartoons by Charles Griffin.
