Drawing on exclusive interviews with key aides, allies and insiders, the authors reconstruct the dramatic arc of Johnson's time in office, from his rise to power during the Brexit deadlock to the crises and scandals that ultimately led to his downfall. It is essential reading for anyone wanting a rigorous, insider account of a defining era in British politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nBeginning with Boris Johnson's ascent to Downing Street in the summer of 2019 amid an unresolved Brexit crisis, this hardback biography charts one of the most turbulent periods in modern British political history. Seldon and Newell draw striking parallels between Johnson and David Lloyd George as they trace the controversial prorogation of Parliament, the 2019 election landslide, and the negotiations that finally delivered Brexit. The narrative moves through the pressures of the Covid-19 pandemic, examining the decisions and fallout that shaped the government's response. International crises are given equal weight, with coverage of the withdrawal from Afghanistan and the outbreak of war in Ukraine, both of which tested Johnson's leadership. The book culminates in a forensic account of the Partygate scandal and the events that led to Johnson's resignation. Written with the authority of experienced political historians and the pace of investigative journalism, this account offers readers a nuanced, well-sourced understanding of power, crisis management and political downfall at the top of British government. It has been widely praised as one of the definitive records of the Johnson years, and named a Book of the Year by the Financial Times, Telegraph, New Statesman and The Times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBased on extensive, exclusive interviews with aides, allies and Whitehall insiders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChronicles the full arc of Johnson's premiership, from Brexit to Partygate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers major crises including Covid-19, the Afghanistan withdrawal and the war in Ukraine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePraised as a Book of the Year by the Financial Times, Telegraph, New Statesman and The Times\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA durable, keepsake-quality hardback ideal for gifting or a personal library\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSir Anthony Seldon is a historian, educator and commentator, and a former headmaster and vice-chancellor.
