How many people know what lies on the other side of the door to 10 Downing Street, or indeed, who built the building? Providing a portrait of the centre of a British Prime Minister's power, this book contains revelatory material on the private behaviour of many of the 20th century's political leaders, as well as an anlysis of how successive Prime Ministers have wielded their power within these 18th-century walls.
