MARGARET THATCHER
IN HER OWN WORDS
EDITED BY IAIN DALE

Margaret Thatcher is one of the towering politicians of the twentieth century. In terms of influence and recognition, she ranks with Winston Churchill, and remains probably the most important British leader for fifty years. A formidable and largely self-trained orator, this volume collects together her greatest and most famous speeches, as well as the cream of her interviews, alongside other biographical material.

KNAPTON
EDITED BY
GILLIAN SHEPHARD

Knapton: Twentieth-Century Village Voices
charts the social history of rural Britain from the late nineteenth century to the present day through the prism of one tiny Norfolk village: Knapton, a little inland from the coast below Cromer. Through the direct testament of villagers, past and present, it tells the story of a small rural community through two world wars, a revolution in agriculture and sweeping economic and social change, as well as education reform, changing employment opportunities and political transformation.

THE MARGARET THATCHER
BOOK OF QUOTATIONS
EDITED BY IAIN DALE
AND GRANT TUCKER

Margaret Thatcher is the most quoted British political leader since Winston Churchill and in this unique collection Iain Dale and Grant Tucker have picked out her most memorable remarks. Never far from emitting a scathing rebuke she possesses a facility for the spoken word rivalled by few others. Some quotes are funny, many are inspirational, most are thoughtful – but they are all unforgettable.
