Reviews

That said, the book is to be commended for admirably pulling together the strands of policy which led to what is now regarded as one of Tony Blair's few successes in his proactive foreign policy. It has rightly been awarded the prestigious R. E. Bradbury Memorial Prize by the School of Historical Studies. (Peter Penfold, The Round Table)
