Hugo Young Reihenfolge der Bücher (Chronologisch)
Hugo John Smelter Young war ein britischer Journalist und Kolumnist. Er war als leitender politischer Kommentator für The Guardian tätig und trug seine Einblicke in den politischen Diskurs ein.
In This Blessed Plot, Hugo Young re-writes for a modern audience the inside history of Britain and the European Union, bringing to his account a wealth of new material and a mass of interviews with the principal participants
Addresses a question that has remained unanswered since the end of World War II: is Britain a European country? Rewriting the inside history of Britain and the European Union, each phase of the history in this book is built around the role of a single character, starting with Churchill and concluding with Tony Blair. The narrative is also built around the careers of Ernest Bevin, Harold Macmillan, Edward Heath, Roy Jenkins and Margaret Thatcher.
Written to coincide with a Channel 4 series on Lady Thatcher, this biography is based on intimate conversations between the Prime Minister and the major politicians of the period and Hugo Young. It traces her life from being an apprentice under Harold Macmillan and her participation in the government of Edward Heath, to her unquestioning destruction of the Conservatism of the 1950s and 1960s and her emergence as a senior stateswoman of the western world.
