Ten Lessons; Postscript: What Remains to be Done; Further ReadingThis biography of Lady Thatcher relates in warm detail the life of Margaret Thatcher, her achievements as British Prime Minister, and her life since retirement. Written in a vigorous, no-nonsense style, Lady Thatcher provides a succinct portrait of the Iron Lady, illustrating what the terms "Thatcherite" and "Thatcherism" really mean. Blundell shows why Thatcher was such an outstanding world leader and such an inspiration for women leaders in particular. The book begins with contrasting scenes - the desolation of Britain in the 1978-9 "Winter of Discontent" prior to Thatcher's premiership, andConservative Party (Great Britain) -- BiographyGreat Britain -- Politics and government -- 1979-1997Prime ministers -- Great Britain -- BiographyThatcher, MargaretWomen prime ministers -- Great Britain -- BiographyPrime ministersGreat BritainBiographyWomen prime ministersGreat BritainBiographyGreat BritainHILCCRegions & Countries - EuropeHILCCHistory & ArchaeologyHILCCConservative Party (Great Britain) -- Biography.Great Britain -- Politics and government -- 1979-1997.Prime ministers -- Great Britain -- Biography.Thatcher, Margaret.Women prime ministers -- Great Britain -- Biography.Prime ministersWomen prime ministersGreat BritainRegions & Countries - EuropeHistory & Archaeology941.085941.085/8092941.0858092Blundell John190114AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910825077503321Lady Thatcher4037672UNINA
