Recenzje

Praise for 'Cameron at 10'

'Explosive... authoritative yet uncompromisingly tough... a gripping and at times astonishing account of the people who rule us' Mail on Sunday

'These pages are a masterclass in so-called "tick-tock" narrative - a minute-by-minute account, studded with detailed recollections and observations... A formidable achievement...Magisterial... If I were Mr Corbyn, I'd get busy reading' Matthew D'Ancona, Evening Standard

'While Lord Ashcroft may have started a brief craze for pig jokes...The more interesting (and damaging) disclosures come in the other new book about him, Cameron at 10 by Anthony Seldon and Peter Snowdon' Fraser Nelson, Telegraph

'Rigorously researched, giving an insight into the inner workings of Cameron's No 10 and the coalition that we have not seen before... While Ashcroft and Oakeshott's Call me Dave should by no means be dismissed, ultimately the offering from Seldon and Snowdon feels a far more substantial look at an intriguing political leader' Independent on Sunday

'An immensely thorough work... it contains a more damaging passage than any in their rival's unauthorised work' Dominic Lawson, Sunday Times

'A substantial piece of work - a blow-by-blow account, impeccably researched and carefully documented, of the highs and lows of the first Cameron administration. The authors appear to have enjoyed almost total access. Their judgements are on the whole balanced and the narrative compelling' Chris Mullin, Observer

'A monumental first draft of history' John Rentoul, Independent

'Where Seldon excels is in his understanding of political relationships. Seldon and Snowdon are adept at convincing friends and colleagues to talk candidly' The Times

'Seldon and Snowdon are particularly strong on foreign policy... Cameron at 10 is an invaluable resource' Daily Telegraph

'Measured and thoughtful... Cameron at 10 is a fascinating book' James Bloodworth, Daily Beast
