 Blair - Anthony Seldon
Description: ISBN 0743232119 / Author: Anthony Seldon / Genre: Biography Newest Review: ... Blair, Seldon decided to split the book into 40 chapters, 20 of which are biographies of key individuals in Blair's life and ... more  ... 20 form the story of his entry to Parliament, his progression to the Labour leadership and then his time as Prime Minister.
I would say though that my review of this book is that this 40 chapter structure is very restrictive and makes the book a little less readable.
