About the Author
Review 'Tim Shipman is the doyen of contemporary chroniclers of the Brexit era. Like its best-selling predecessors, All Out War and Fall Out, this new book is meticulously sourced, merciless and revelatory. It is a closely observed study of power, and how it is gained, used and lost. It is testament to Shipman’s journalistic skills that he can make a lengthy account of a prolonged, agonisingly protracted political failure into a fast-paced narrative'FINANCIAL TIMES‘Meticulously constructed… There are enough tasty vignettes and morsels of gossip to make the main course of backstops and “meaningful” votes enjoyable for fans of the previous volumes. It is also a scrupulously even-handed account that will be of great value to future historians. As in the first two books, Shipman avoids easy caricatures and sets out the real-world constraints and pressures acting on the players.’THE TIMES'The quantity of work required to tell a complicated, many-sided story in such detail is astonishing. What do we learn? Well, many things of genuine interest to political followers and historians. Is his book worth it? In the end, undoubtedly yes… in an age of short-attention-span social media caricature, this is proper work, the real stuff of understanding. Historians will lean on it heavily. Would-be political leaders of the future will learn from it. It will set the narrative about how Brexit was handled, in a way other journalists can only envy'ANDREW MARR, NEW STATESMAN'Shipman has had a sound claim to the mantle of master chronicler… May is a difficult PM to write about and Shipman does the best job to date of making a dutiful, uncommunicative and limited leader come to life'EVENING STANDARD‘The best political watcher out there’NICK FERRARI, LBC
