A man of paradoxes, Iain Macleod has been a legendary figure in the Tory party for many years. One of the most brilliant of modern politicians, he was an audacious romantic who courted controversy and regularly enthralled the Party conference. Macleod died in 1970 at the age of 56, only a month after becoming Chancellor. Widely regarded as the lost leader, there is no doubt that, had he lived, the history of the Conservative Party, and of Britain, would have been different. The first full and impartial biography shows that Macloeds trail-blazing career was fuelled by fierce ambition and enriched by wide experience of life. It explains the radical one-nation Toryism for which he fought and - coming at a time when the Party's direction is uncertain - it makes an important contribution to current political debate.
