Most politicians write autobiographies to 'set the record straight' and provide retrospective justification for their careers. That is not the case with this book. Chris Patten's career has taken him from the outer London suburbs to the House of Commons, a seat in the Cabinet, last Governor of Hong Kong, Chairman of the BBC and Chancellor of Oxford University. About all of these he is enlightening and entertaining.
