Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Giles Radice's diaries, which cover the years from 1980 - 2001, are not only an account of a distinguished parliamentary and political life. It is also one of only two published Labour diaries for the period (the other, of course, being that of Tony Benn) - and it is the only one written from a 'modernising' position. It follows the success of Radice's critically acclaimed Friends and Rivals, his group biography of Roy Jenkins, Denis Healey and Anthony Crosland, by giving an insider's view of the frustrating years in opposition in the 1980s, the short-lived John Smith leadership, the rise to power of Tony Blair, and of the success and failures of the Labour government from 1997-2001. It is a gripping read for all 'diary' aficionados, as well as being essential source material for historians and students of the modern Labour party. The book contains descriptions of Labour's civil war in the 1980s and the SDP split; the flaws in the Kinnock leadership; the fall of Mrs Thatcher; John Major's uneasy premiership; the rise of Tony Blair and the 1997 triumph; and a compelling portrait of Labour in power, including the tensions between Blair and Brown. It also provides an exceptional account of the European issue in British politics, as well as the fall of the Soviet empire in Eastern Europe. Above all, it exposes a revealing insight into the life of a senior Member of Parliament, with all its hopes, pressures and frustrations and its impact on family life. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
