Plot Summary of Life In The Jungle
"Michael Heseltine, perhaps the most famous politician never to become Prime Minister of Great Britain tells the story of his life. He provides inside information on the Westland affair of the 1980's that nearly brought down Margaret Thatcher and his relationship with the 'Iron Lady'. Heseltine does not hold back from criticism but is also not afraid to highlight his own mistakes."
Alex Wolstenholme, Resident Scholar
