Margaret Thatcher
'Utterly gripped' Hilary Mantel Charles Moore's bestselling and definitive biography of Britain's first female Prime Minister, now in a single volume With unparalleled authority and dramatic detail, Charles Moore's definitive biography of Margaret Thatcher presents the whole history of the woman who transformed Britain and the world. With unique access to Thatcher’s private and governmental papers and extensive interviews with her, her family, and colleagues, Moore gives readers an unsurpassed portrait of her early years, her rise to power and her revolutionary eleven and a half years as Prime Minister.

Moore describes her sometimes combative relationships with senior colleagues – especially Geoffrey Howe, Nigel Lawson and Michael Heseltine - who contributed both to her rise and to her fall. He portrays the strength and
Margaret Thatcher
Älskad, hatad och omstridd som få! Mer än tjugo år efter sitt fall väcker Storbritanniens första kvinnliga premiärminister fortfarande starka känslor. Som kvinna, född i en medelklassfamilj på den engelska landsbygden, var hennes chanser att bli politiker låga, och att bli premiärminister egentligen lika med noll. Men hon lyckades med det omöjliga och gick inte bara långt, utan längst. Margaret Thatcher kom att leda ett korståg mot vad hon och hennes anhängare uppfattade som ett socialistiskt samhälle. Hennes hårdföra politik och auktoritära ledarstil gav henne dock många fiender samt epitetet »Järnladyn«. 1990 tvingades hon avgå under dramatiska former. Gunnela Björk, docent i historia, har skrivit den första biografin på svenska om Margaret Thatcher. På ett engagerat och initierat sätt summeras hennes liv och gärning, från barndomen på den engelska landsbygden till ålderdomen präglad av svår demens.

Assassination of Fred Hampton
Read the story behind the award-winning film Judas and the Black Messiah On December 4, 1969, attorney Jeff Haas was in a police lockup in Chicago, interviewing Fred Hampton’s fiancÉe. Deborah Johnson described how the police pulled her from the room as Fred lay unconscious on their bed. She heard one officer say, “He’s still alive.” She then heard two shots. A second officer said, “He’s good and dead now.” She looked at Jeff and asked, “What can you do?” The Assassination of Fred Hampton remains Haas’s personal account of how he and People’s Law Office partner Flint Taylor pursued Hampton’s assassins, ultimately prevailing over unlimited government resources and FBI conspiracy. Fifty years later, Haas writes that there is still an urgent need for the revolutionary systemic changes Hampton was organizing to accomplish. Not only a story of justice delivered, this book spotlights Hampton as a dynamic community leader and an inspiration for those in the ongoing fight against injustice
