Margaret Thatcher: A Tribute in Words and Pictures

Margaret Thatcher, Britain’s first female prime minister and one of the most influential world leaders of the 20th century, celebrated her 80th birthday in 2005—a fitting moment to celebrate her dynamic personality and monumental, sometimes controversial achievements. This lavish tribute, illustrated with 200 color photographs, brings together more than 100 personal reminiscences and anecdotes from major world figures, among them Ronald and Nancy Reagan, Mikhail Gorbachev, Henry Kissinger, Helmut Kohl, and Shimon Peres, as well as some of Britain’s leading journalists, politicians, and civil servants, both allies and opponents of the Iron Lady. Includes a foreword by Charles Moore, Thatcher’s authorized biographer.
