Wit and Wisdom of British Prime Ministers

Wit and Wisdom of British Prime Ministers 
From Robert Walpole to Gordon Brown, Britain's 52 Prime Ministers have led our great nation through war and peace, hardship and prosperity. But what did they really think - about politics, history, society, their fellow man and the everyday rigours of being top dog?

Taking the same winning formula that made Duke of Hazard - The Wit and Wisdom of Prince Philip and What's in the Queen's Handbag such runaway successes, Fleet Street's finest Phil Dampier and Ashley Walton now focus their light-hearted gaze on the mysterious world of Number 10. What did Disraeli really think of Gladstone? Baldwin of Churchill? Heath of Thatcher? Who was the first? The youngest? The eldest? And who lasted longest?

This comprehensive romp through British politics gives a bird's eye view on the best one-liners, prize putdowns, famous speeches, acerbic asides and classic faux pas of Downing Street's head honchos across the ages.

For everything you ever wanted to know about the seat of British power, but were too afraid to ask, look no further than the indispensable Wit and Wisdom of British Prime Ministers.
