Baron Healey of Riddlesden, previously and better known as Denis Healey, was once described as 'Great Britain's most popular politician'. It really is his affable characteristics, his decency, and his notion that there is more to life than politics that make this biography so engaging. Furthermore, he offers one of the very most instantly recognisable voices in the united states. In this marvelous voice he instructs us with disarming integrity about his youth in Yorkshire, his time at Oxford University, the outbreak of warfare and his part in a few of its fiercest battles in North Africa, Sicily and Anzio. He then details his profession in Parliament, his position in the centre of both opposition and administration, his time as Defence Secretary and most notably as Chancellor of the Exchequer in the turbulent 70s. Most importantly, we hear about Denis Healey the family man; the support from his better half, Edna; and his love of the arts, from poetry and music to painting and photography. This is an extraordinary man. His ambiance and wit educated his life. Is there another Chancellor of the Exchequer who made an appearance on the Morcambe and Wise show and Saturday Live? The answer is no, and we won't see his like again. He's now in his 90s.
