The Impossible Office?: The History of the British Prime Minister - Revised and Updated

I loved the idea of this book and view Sheldon as a very intellectual advocate. I found it however difficult to follow as there was a lot of information, all very absorbing but difficult to keep together. I liked the various comparisons of PMs and the development of the PM through their respective councils and relationship with the monarchy. It was interesting the way he separated the various ways of working and the individual strengths of individual PMs

This book should be required reading for every aspiring politician and especially for every party leader!Well written, comprehensive, and full of insights into what makes a good or bad Prime Minister.

The voice of the master.
