If you’ve ever had a book published you’ll know what it feels like to finally get your hands on a finished copy. Today I got my first copy of my new book MEMORIES OF MARGARET THATCHER – A PORTRAIT BY THOSE WHO KNEW HER BEST. Thirteen years ago I published Memories of Maggie. This is a vastly expanded version of that book. There are 215 essays of varying length by a variety of people – world leaders, politicians, political opponents, journalists, activists and friends of the Iron Lady. It’s a bit of a doorstep of a book, running to nearly 600 pages. It’s not meant to be read in one go, but it’s a treasure trove of fascinating anecdotes which I think give a really unique insight into what Margaret Thatcher was like as a human being, as well as a politician.
It’s the ideal complement to Charles Moore’s authorised biography,which I have just started reading, and if you know an ardent Thatcher fan, they will love it!
You can order a signed copy (by me, not her!) from Politicos.co.uk HERE
Or an unsigned one from Amazon HERE
And yes, it will be available as an eBook in the next ten days.
Over the course of the next week, I’m going to post an essay from the book each morning on the blog. The first one will appear tomorrow morning at 9am.
