Product Description

Product Description

Alan Beith has been an MP for England's northernmost constituency for 35 years and is a leading figure in the Liberal Democrats. His book covers key stages in his party's growth, including the 1970s Lib-Lab pact and Paddy Ashdown's leadership, and also what the philosophy of Liberalism is all about. He writes about his work overseeing Britain's intelligence and security services over more than a decade, and how faith has helped him through dark times with the deaths of his first wife, Barbara, and his son, Chris.

5.0 out of 5 stars Praise for Alan Beith and A View from the North, 23 Feb 2009
By Dr. Diana Harris "Ernest E Hosken" (Cornwall UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Alan Beith is a highly respected Honorary Gentleman whose autobiography is a most interesting and enjoyable read. As a fellow Methodist Lay Preacher I was most interested to read how his faith as a Christian has influenced him in his career as a parliamentarian. As a Liberal Democrat he is a credit to the party, but also respected by other parties at Westminster. As a Cornishman it was good to read about other Cornish Christians in Parliament, especially John Pardoe and David Penhaligon. I was particularly pleased and interested to know about the architectural heritage of chapels, not only in the North of England but also in other parts of the country.
