4.0 out of 5 stars A Political Suicide, 23 Jul 2009
Informative and easy to read dissection of the Conservatives' rise to Government in 1979 and where it all went wrong in the run up to 1997. An insight into what goes on behind the scenes of a party in Government and where it can all unravel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Honest and riveting, 5 Oct 2009
By Mr. J. A. Hyder-Wilson (Worthing, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Very clear, readable and honest account of the Tories fall from grace. It also begins to explain why they are still a contaminated product, even now in 2009. Winning the 1992 election was probably their biggest disaster. Had they lost this, they would have bounced back well before now. Fowler sets the slow motion car crash out in a straightforward and admirably blunt way. A really good read.
