 Michael Jago, "Clement Attlee: The Inevitable Prime Minister" English | 2014 | ISBN: 1785902369, 1849546835 | EPUB | pages: 388 | 2.4 mb Attlee has been labelled the accidental Prime Minister, but, as this biography demonstrates, Labours longest-serving leader lacked neither ambition nor ability, and his partys landslide victory in 1945 was not merely due to a temporary wave of populism. Jago traces Attlees rise to power, including his role as Churchills wartime deputy, and shows how his relentless quest for a more egalitarian society inspired far-reaching reforms, not least the creation of the NHS. |
