This authorized biography of Lord Longford traces the career of the much-satirized peer whose recent campaigns, which include calls for the paroling of Moors murderer Myra Hindley, have obscured his other activities. Despite his impeccable aristocratic upbringing in a colourful and very public family, he has always been a thorn in the side of the Establishment, and as a politician contributed much to the formation of the NHS and to Harold Wilson's administrations of the 1960s, even then refusing to conform to the expectations of a cabinet post.
