Book ID/图书代码： 12100013B64764

English Summary/英文概要： It is being billed as the must-read political book of the year. --The Independent

[A] captivating account... It is unlikely that his account will change many minds about this greatly flawed politician, but its self-lacerating candour and humour deserve a wide audience. It is both a memoir and a manual, one that will serve historians, students of the craft of politics and if they take the trouble to read it those Conservatives who are even now working on how to get David Cameron back to Downing Street in 2015. It is the essential political book of the year... There are anecdotes galore involving nudity, vast amounts of alcohol, and dirty tricks. His memoir will be read first for the elegant and lightly told vignettes. McBride can write, which makes it a pleasure to read... So much of this invaluable book is true. --Benedict Brogan, The Telegraph

It is pacy and McBride writes with a nice turn of phrase. --Robert Shrimsley, Financial Times

The first thing to say is that I think the book is structured very well... It is an excellent read and for a political geek like me there was enough behind the scenes colour and filling in the gaps for episodes that I recall seeing unfold from the outside to keep me glued to it for the 2 days (on and off) it took me to read it... I would certainly recommend this book to anyone interested in politics and/or the processes that go on behind the scenes. I suspect that all the main movers and shakers of all parties will have it on their reading lists, and that’s if they haven’t already read it. In the world of Westminster there is almost no bigger compliment for political memoirs. It shows you once mattered and Damian McBride certainly did. --Mark Thompson

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 它被誉为当年必读的政治书。——《独立报》 [A]迷惑的借口…他的借口不可能改变许多对这位颇有争议的政治家有意见的人的看法,但其坦率、幽默的自我批评值得拥有广大的观众。它既是一本回忆录也是一本指南手册,将服务于历史学家、不辞劳苦理解那些致力于让大卫．卡梅隆在2015年回到唐宁街的保守派的政治学学生。它是当年必读的政治书…涉及裸体,大量的酒精和肮脏的把戏的丰富轶事。他的回忆录会第一时间讲述优雅和轻松的小插曲。麦克布莱德写作,可以让阅读这本书成为一件快乐的事…这本书是无价的。——本尼迪克特．布罗甘，《电讯报》

进展迅速，麦克布莱德以一个漂亮的措辞写作。——罗伯特•舍瑞恩斯里,《金融时报》

首先要说的是,我觉得这本书是结构非常好…这是一本很好的读物，对于像我一样的政治极客，可以有足够的幕后背景和空白让我回忆起事件的展开，让我可以沉迷两天（连续不断地),它带我去理解…我肯定会推荐这本书给任何感兴趣政治的人和/或继续在幕后的进程。我猜想所有政府机关的主要职员如果他们还没有读过，都将会把此书列入他们的阅读列表中。在威斯敏斯特的世界几乎没有更大的对政治回忆录的赞美了。它表明你曾经很重要,达米安．麦克布莱德确实。——马克•汤普森(LNL)
