Margaret Thatcher, Volume 2: The Iron Lady

“Anyone who wants to know what really happened between 1979 and 1990 should read this book.”–Daily Telegraph

John Campbell’s second volume covers the years of Margaret Thatcher’s momentous premiership. Thirteen years after her removal from power, this is the first comprehensive and fully researched study of the Thatcher Government, from its hesitant beginning to its colleagues, aides, advisers and rivals. It also contains original material from the Ronald Reagan archive, shedding fascinating new light on the Reagan-Thatcher “special relationship.” The Iron Lady confirms John Campbell’s Margaret Thatcher as one of the greatest political biographies of recent times.
