The Path to Power

Informationen zum Autor In 1979 Margaret Thatcher became the first woman British Prime Minister. A decade later she became the first premier for 160 years to win three consecutive general elections. In 1990 she resigned her leadership of an increasingly divided and turbulent government. She is the only PM to have given her name to a branch of political philosophy, and arguably the most important figure in postwar British politics.

Reissued to tie in with the major new film starring Meryl Streep and Jim Broadbent, "The Iron Lady", and the 30th anniversary of the Falklands War.
