A Journey My Political Life

From one of the most dynamic leaders of modern times, an intimate, far-reaching and hugely revealing memoir.In 1997, the biggest Labour Party victory in history swept England, ending 18 years of Conservative government. Prime Minister Tony Blair—young, charismatic, and complex—shaped the nation profoundly in the ten years that followed. Alternately beloved and reviled, he was an international figure to a degree matched by few British leaders—a role he continues to this day through the Tony Blair Faith Foundation and his work in the Middle East. Now, for the first time, we see the fascinating journey and difficult choices of the Prime Minister through his own eyes.Grippingly candid, The Journey is full of startling insights into a host of world leaders, including George W. Bush and Bill Clinton. It is also a book that delves deeply and profoundly into what it means to be in a position of great power today, and its emotional and personal toll.
