Before George Bush and Tony Blair, there was Ronald Reagan and Margaret
Thatcher. Together they embodied the trans-Atlantic special relationship
and faced head-on the threat of global communism. In her eulogy for
Reagan, Thatcher famously said, "We have lost a great president, a great
American, and a great man. And I have lost a dear friend."
Thatcher was a formidable and largely self-trained orator and this
volume collects her greatest and most famous speeches, as well as the
cream of her interviews, alongside other biographical material.
To mark the twentieth anniversary of Thatcher leaving power, Dialogue is
also releasing a three-hour CD of her greatest speeches, unabridged.
