Hardback. Zustand: Good. ?Reid is a lively and likeable biographer ? interested in MacDonald the man: his diaries, letters and poems.? ? The Telegraph ?This beautifully written book puts Ramsay MacDonald in his rightful place in the politi-cal history of the UK.? ? Robert Lyman How the first working-class politician to reach Britain's highest office was brought down, and his legacy disparaged. Ramsay MacDonald was born an illegitimate child in north-east Scotland. Leaving school at fourteen, he seemed bound to follow in his ploughman father's footsteps. Instead, he would become the UK's first Labour Prime Minister--a friend of George V and a global political star. How did he get there from his Highland bothy? Why has he been erased from political memory? And how did this leftist parliamentarian end up leading a Conservative-dominated National Government? MacDonald's was an elusive, Celtic personality, easier to criticise than to understand. Historian Walter Reid demystifies this fascinating politician, dismissing the common charge of treacherous ambition and tracing MacDonald's personal odyssey--including half a life grieving his wife Margaret, a remarkable feminist and social reformer lost young to blood poisoning. History has been unkind to MacDonald, and most often written with politically hostile pens. Drawing extensively on his private diaries, this biography restores a towering figure to his rightful historical place, and reveals his full complexity--a man not without faults, but able and honourable, with deep and widespread interests. A critical, but fair, biography of this forgotten British PM Exonerates MacDonald from the narrative that he led the Conservative-dominated National Government for reasons of treacherous ambition Resurrects an important political figure from the dust heaps of history.
