Om denne lydboken

She was born above a grocery shop in a gray English town. She died as one of the most influential political figures of the twentieth century. Between those two points, Margaret Thatcher changed her country, shook the world, and divided entire generations between admiration and indignation.This book tells her complete story: the methodical girl who learned the value of money behind a counter, the Oxford student who read Hayek and found her ideological compass, the prime minister who defeated the unions, won a war in the South Atlantic, challenged the Kremlin, and was finally brought down by her own party in forty-eight hours of unprecedented political betrayal.This twelfth installment does not take sides or build legends. It examines her achievements without hagiography and her mistakes without cruelty, because the truth about Thatcher is more fascinating than any simplified version: she was braver and more implacable, more human and more contradictory than her admirers confess and her detractors recognize.A biography for those who want to understand, not merely judge, the woman who defined an era.
