Product Description
Michael Foot
"a truly magnificent biography in every sense: a moving portrait of Jennie herself, a most scrupulous painting of the political background, an unchallengable account of Jennie's record as a Minister"

Gerald Kaufman, Daily Telegraph
"The best biography that I have read for years. Superbly researched, engrossingly written, scrupulously honest"

4.0 out of 5 stars A fascinating biog of a major political player, 8 Aug 2007
By brixtonite "brixtonite" (Brixton, London,England) - See all my reviews
Jennie Lee was very important to C20 british labour politics - a real socialist firebrand who championed the miners, was one of the first female mps , worked on aircraft production with Beaverbrook during the war, was our first arts minister also founded the OU and had influence as the wife of Nye Bevan.
This monumental biography is the biography she deserves and gives enough detail and manages to entertain along the way.It delineates her achievements in a clear way , also her many faults. It gives a fresh insight into labour politics in the middle years of the century.
