Riveting and candid memoir of life behind the scenes as US
Ambassador and Prime Minister's Press Secretary - a Sunday Times
bestseller Christopher Meyer was Ambassador to the United States
from 1997 to 2003, during which time he was an eyewitness to and
participant in the events following 9/11 and the preparations for
the Iraq war. Never before has there been such a riveting and
candid memoir of life behind the diplomatic scenes. Meyer's is an
honest account of what he saw, what he heard and how he felt. The
cast list of characters who feature here includes Margaret
Thatcher, Bob Hope, the Clintons, Steven Spielberg, Condoleeza
Rice, Alastair Campbell and Jack Straw. The book reveals close
encounters with Tony Blair, Robin Cook and Peter Mandelson; KGB
honey traps in Russia; a major row with Bill Clinton; inside
stories on Number 10 and the Foreign Office; and of course life
behind the scenes with Blair and George W. Bush. It was clear that
the Prime Minister's office and not the Foreign Office would
control relations with Washington, and Meyer shows in close up how
he helped facilitate the 'special relationship'.
