About this product
Product Information
This useful single-volume collection combines an introductory essay on the emergence and changing role of the British prime minister with 51 concise biographies of the people who have played this role, from Sir Robert Walpole at the beginning of the 18th century to current prime minister Tony Blair. These essays reveal how each figure molded the office in response to the situation of the time, and the preface by Lord Butler adds insight into the present-day workings of the office.

Preface by
Butler, Lord
Reviews
This impressive, eminently readable tome fills a distinct gap and is to be warmly welcomed. All the entries show evidence of wide, thoughtful and up-to-date reading, and the authors have skilfully woven their findings into a coherent narrative with a succinct, accessible style. Their assessments and conclusions are unfailingly judicious and penetrating... The study succeeds in being comprehensive and detailed without being at all superficial. It is certain to appeal to academics, college and university students and the general reader alike and will undoubtedly stand the test of time.', A well-written and handsomely illustrated tome, which includes short essays on each of the fifty-one premiers from Walpole onwards.', Concise biographies of the 50 men and one woman made all the more engrossing by their brevity... The ration of roughly 2,500 words allotted by Roger Ellis and Geoffrey Treasure is more than adequate to provide insight into the sort of individuals whose egos are large enough to persuade them they are fit to lead a country... There is an insightful preface by Lord Butler, who, having served five prime ministers, knows more about the breed than most.', '...for an introduction to the political lives of the 50 Prime Ministers from Walpole to Major (with an envoi on Blair), these elegant essays could hardly be bettered.'

I've bought from them a few times, and every time the records arrive just as described and well packed for shipping. Their prices for the EU releases I want have been far better than any other sellers. So I will continue to buy vinyl from them, knowing that they maintain a high level of customer support & communication.
