Harold Wilson
Harold Wilson is the only post-war leader of any party to serve as Britain's Prime Minister on two separate occasions.

How did he do it - and at what cost? Critics then and now have painted him as an opportunistic political calculator, even as a Soviet secret agent. In this powerful new portrait, drawing on previously unavailable sources and first-hand parliamentary insight, acclaimed biographer Nick Thomas-Symonds reveals a more complex figure.
