BOOK OF THE YEAR, The Times, Guardian and Prospect Was Harold
Wilson a bigger figure than Denis Healey? Was John Major more
'prime ministerial' than Michael Heseltine? Would David Miliband
have become prime minister if it were not for his brother Ed? Would
Ed have become prime minister if it were not for David? How close
did Jeremy Corbyn come to being prime minister? In this piercing
and original study, journalist and commentator Steve Richards looks
at eleven prime ministers we never had, examining what made each of
these illustrious figures unique and why they failed to make the
final leap to the very top. Combining astute insights into the
demands of leadership with compelling historical analysis, this
fascinating exploration of failure and success sheds new light on
some of the most compelling characters in British public life.
