New Edition. An extraordinary copy of this standard work. The book has been SIGNED by no less than 12 of some of the most well-known and senior members of the British Labour Party from the 80's/90's and early Noughties.

The signatures (at the front pastedown and front endpaper and - modestly, on its own at the half-title) are from: John Prescott MP (now Baron Prescott); the late Tam Dalyell MP; Neil Kinnock MP (now Baron Kinnock); the late Dennis Healy (Baron Healy); the hon. Clare Short, MP (retired); the late Donald Dewar, MP (inaugural First Minister of Scotland): Roy Hattersley, MP (now Baron Hattersley); the late Michael Foot MP; the late Tony Benn, MP; the late Robin Cook, MP; Gordon Brown MP; George Galloway, MP.

Neil Kinnock, Michael Foot and Gordon Brown were each Leaders of the Party at various times and Brown was, of course, the most recent Labour Party Prime Minister.

A remarkable item of political memorabilia and undoubtedly a unique copy of this title. The book is in VG clean condition (previous owner name at bottom of the fep), the dustjacket has the publisher's price-clip with new price and minor chipping at the corners and spine tips.
