A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
A concise, sharp-witted and illuminating account of the lives of
Britain's prime ministers from Walpole to May, illustrated
by Martin Rowson.
For the reader who has heard of such giants as Gladstone and Disraeli,
and has drunk in a pub called the Palmerston, but has only the haziest
idea of who these people were, Gimson's Prime Ministers offers a
short account of them all which can be read for pleasure, and not just
for edification. With Gimson's wonderful prose once again complemented
by Martin Rowson's inimitable illustrations, this lively and
entertaining aide-memoire and work of satirical genius brings our
parliamentary history to life as never before.
