A Listmania! list by "dancer_with_dogma"

1. Whatever Happened to the Tories: The Conservative Party Since 1945: History of the Conservative Party Since 1945 (Fourth Estate paperbacks) by Ian Gilmour

The list author says:
	"Lord Gilmour, sacked from Thatcher's cabinet and vilified in the Clark diaries, takes the pith out of Thatcherism as much as objectively retelling post-war Toryism. FAB!"

2. Goodbye to All That (Essential Penguin) by Robert Graves

The list author says:
	"Honest. The only book to make me cry! The appendix is a must -it reveals that Graves' later life was fairly uneventful despite his works and the description of the death of his son in the later War."

5. The Poetical Works (Wordsworth Poetry Library) by Rupert Brooke

The list author says:

6. Blue Remembered Years: A Political Memoir by Ian Lang

The list author says:
	"The logest serving Scottish Office Minister in its history, coordinator of leadership campaigns and original member of the "Monty Python" set, Lord Lang elucidates Scottish issues eloquently. AMAZING."

7. Diaries: In Power by Alan Clark

The list author says:
	"The inspiration for Rick Mayall's Alan B'stard. He is one, but he is also clever and fun, unlike many politcos."

8. Curzon by David Gilmour

The list author says:
	"Yeah, yeah he's deeply flawed but the Curzonian work ethic is inspirational. Author thorough (son of 1. in fact)."

9. Friends in High Places: Who Runs Britain? [ Peguin Paperback ] by Jeremy Paxman

The list author says:
	"Bizzarely more worthwhile for its continuing repetition of the same message. Paxo less sloppy than recently but still some gems of anecdote."

10. Lord Hailsham: A Life (Pimlico) by Geoffrey M Lewis

The list author says:
	""To deal with Lord Hailsham you don't have to be good at dealing with the elderley but at dealing with children." Admirable yet redolent of the ilk responsible for the decline of Britain."
