This insightful, scrupulously researched biography sheds fascinating new light on the upbringing and political career of the former Labour leader who, at the time of writing, looked set to mount an effective challenge against the Conservatives.

Review
"Well written and expertly researched, this book is essential reading for anybody wanting to understand either Ed Miliband or the modern Labour Party." Peter Oborne "Exhaustively researched and written with unflagging energy ... may prove to be the definitive account of the formative years and rise to power. "John Gray, The Guardian

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. What makes a man put politics and ambition before family? Ed Miliband is perhaps the least understood political leader of modern times. This book reveals where he has come from and where he is going. It charts his unique upbringing, against the backdrop of tragedy and with a prominent Marxist thinker for a father. But Ed's story cannot be fully understood outside the context of his struggle to emerge from the shadow of his elder brother, David. Ed followed David to the same college at Oxford, into Parliament and into the Cabinet before, at the eleventh hour, snatching away David's dream of the leadership. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR005306407
