jimbowen0306's review against another edition
3.0
Edward Heath was the British Prime Minister from 1970 to 1974. Prior to his obtaining this position, he was significant within his party. Afterwards, he was not, but instead of leaving the House of Commons to pursue a life in business, he remained an "anti-Thatcher" backbencher (Margaret thatcher was his successor as party leader).
This book was written in the late 1990s. For its time, I'm sure it was interesting, but it feels dated now. He rehashes issues that are either "settled facts of the British political landscape", or see him come down on the side of issues that have to make you think about his judgement.
