In Search of Tony Blair
Historian Anthony Seldon (author of the definitive biography of John Major) has interviewed hundreds of people who know Blair. His research has taken him from encounters with Blair's intimate friends from his early years to the corridors of power in Britain, Europe and the United States. He's talked to those who were with him when he started out in politics, those who were beside him when he made the key decisions which would shape his future and the politics of Britain. What inspired his fight against the old labour diehards, his determination to turn Labour into a populist party, his daring implementation of radical new policies and his very public respect for Margaret Thatcher's achievements? And what was behind Tony Blair's determination to take Britain into controversial conflicts in Kosovo, Afghanistan... and Iraq. What does he really believe in?
