Margaret Thatcher: Path to Power (2012, HarperCollins Publishers Limited) 2 stars

Review of 'Path to Power' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

Thatcher's pre-political life was, by and large, rather dull, and certainly not worthy of 600 pages. A better writer could have made the occasional gem sparkle (and indeed Charles Moore appears to have managed this) but a boring subject matter discussed at length in an equally tedious writing style results in a long hard slog that isn't worth the effort unless you are a student of political history.
