A timely, ambitious and vivid history of freedom - and how it happens to be a uniquely British invention.
Daniel Hannan has been Conservative MEP for South East England since 1999. His speech against Gordon Brown in 2010 is the most watched political video in Britain. He blogs regularly at www.hannan.co.uk and for the Daily Telegraph.
A magnificent achievement. Hannan's prose coruscates, and he has a
fine eye for anecdotal detail. He bestrides the Atlantic like a
majestic combination of Winston Churchill and Piers Morgan
