DC Confidential
Riveting and candid memoir of life behind the scenes as US Ambassador and Prime Minister's Press Secretary - a Sunday Times bestseller Christopher Meyer was Ambassador to the United States from 1997 to 2003, during which time he was an eyewitness to and participant in the events following 9/11 and the preparations for the Iraq war. Never before has there been such a riveting and candid memoir of life behind the diplomatic scenes. Meyer's is an honest account of what he saw, what he heard and how he felt. The cast list of characters who feature here includes Margaret Thatcher, Bob Hope, the Clintons, Steven Spielberg, Condoleeza Rice, Alastair Campbell and Jack Straw. The book reveals close encounters with Tony Blair, Robin Cook and Peter Mandelson; KGB honey traps in Russia; a major row with Bill Clinton; inside stories on Number 10 and the Foreign Office; and of course life behind the scenes with Blair and George W.

In mijn eigen woorden
Ze was First Lady van Engeland. Dit is haar eigen verhaal. Cherie Blair was de eerste vrouw van een Britse premier met een eigen carrière. Als advocaat bereikte ze al op jonge leeftijd de top van haar vakgebied, en vond toen als vrouw van Tony Blair een nieuwe, uitdagende rol in de schijnwerpers. In haar memoires vertelt zij voor het eerst hoe het was om deze rol te combineren met een leven als hardwerkende moeder en carrièrevrouw. In haar autobiografie vertelt Cherie Blair over haar eenvoudige, onconventionele jeugd in Liverpool, haar carrière als jurist, haar leven als moeder van vier kinderen en over haar jaren op Downing Street 10 als vrouw van de Britse premier.
Speaking for Myself
Even if she hadn't married Tony Blair, Cherie's story would have been amazing. Abandoned by her actor father, she overcame obstacles to become one of the UK's most successful barristers. But when Labour took power in 1997, she faced new challenges: her husband was the first Prime Minister in recent history with a young family, and Cherie was the first PM's wife with a serious career. Now, she gives a complete account of her own life -- an astonishing journey for a woman whose unconventional childhood was full of drama and who grew up with a fierce sense of justice. In her autobiography she reveals for the first time what it was like to combine life as a working mother with life married to the Prime Minister. She writes about her encounters with scores of foreign leaders and her friendships with Presidents Clinton and Bush, as well as with Hillary and Laura. And she offers inside details of her relationships with the royals, including Queen Elizabeth, Prince Charles, and Princess Diana.
