内容説明
This A-Z biographical dictionary profiles Britain's prime ministers, foreign secretaries, home secretaries, and Chancellors of the Exchequer, from 1730 through the present-all in clear, concise language.
These leaders guided the nation through the loss of empire, through two devastating world wars, and into a new role as members of the European Union. In clear, accessible language, this new dictionary shows how in the 18th century, and to a lesser extent in the 19th century, many of Britain's top leaders were linked more closely by family and factional interests than by party. It also illustrates-and helps to explain-the rise of the Labour Party and the emergence of "New Labour."
Detailed biographical essays on 198 top British leaders, from William Pitt to Tony Blair
48 photographs, portraits, and cartoons including many political cartoons from World War II
Chronological list of leaders by cabinet office-prime ministers, chancellors of the exchequer, foreign secretaries, and home secretaries
An extensive bibliography and index
