4.9/5 (26353 ratings)

Description:David Cameron, Boris Johnson and Alan Johnson Politics is dominated by giant personalities - and never more so than today. In ‘Portraits in Power’, three of Nigel Cawthorne’s best-selling political biographies are collected together for the first time. It includes: DAVID CAMERON David Cameron has always been proud of his Scottish, Welsh and English heritage, and of being all things to all people. However, he was undeniably born into a life of privilege, and can claim bankers, Baronets and even royalty as ancestors. As Tory leader, he was the compassionate, modern and inclusive face of his party. A man keen to show he understood the concerns of ordinary people, and could lead the Conservatives to victory in the 2010 General Election. Instead, he was forced to form a coalition, and as Prime Minister, has faced accusations that his Cabinet is an Old Etonian ‘boys club’. Having weathered a Scottish referendum storm and anger over the financial cuts across British society, David Cameron must ensure his political survival in an upcoming election which, thanks to Nigel Farage, looks set to be even more unpredictable than the last… BORIS JOHNSON Boris Johnson has become that incredibly rare figure in modern British politics, someone who is actually liked. His charm, wit and unkempt mop of blond hair have endeared him to a public tired of “soundbite” politicians. From Oxford and the infamous Bullingdon Club, to national newspapers and all the way to City Hall, he has made his way to the top without it ever appearing to be planned. But is his buffoonery hiding a fierce political ruthlessness? Should David Cameron feel threatened? Or has BoJo had enough of politics? With his star only rising, there has never been a more relevant time to investigate a man who has become a true political phenomenon. ALAN JOHNSON Alan Johnson is believed by many to be the best party leader Labour never had. He is one of those few politicians who can strike a chord with ordinary people. From humble origins, he climbed to the top of the establishment, yet never lost touch with his roots. Johnson left school at fifteen, became a postman and worked his way up through the Union of Communication Workers to become its General Secretary, before becoming an MP. Elected to parliament in 1997, he has served as Home Secretary, Health Secretary, Education Secretary and Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer. He supported David Miliband in his bid to become leader of the Labour Party after the resignation of Gordon Brown. But after serving just three-and-a-half months as Ed Miliband’s Shadow Chancellor, he resigned for personal reasons. Many politicians and pundits regard him as the Labour leader – or even Prime Minister – in waiting. Nigel Cawthorne is the author of over 160 books including ‘Blond Ambition: The Rise and Rise of Boris Johnson’, ‘Jeremy Clarkson: Motormouth’, ‘Harry: A Prince Among Men’ and ‘A Little Bit of Stephen Fry’. He lives in Bloomsbury, London's literary area. Endeavour Press is the UK's leading independent publisher of digital books.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
