Kurzbeschreibung

The diaries of Right Hon. James Hacker MP a must-read for fans of the 1980s hit political comedy Yes Minister

Beschreibung

'We have had diaries from other Cabinet Ministers, but none I

think which have been quite so illuminating... It is a

fascinating diary... It is shorter than Barbara Castle's... and

although it is rather more accurate than Dick Crossman's, it

is distinctly funnier' - Lord Allen of Abbeydale (formerly

Permanent Secretary at the Home Office) in The Times

'It has an entertainment and educational value which is

unique. It is uproariously funny and passes the acid test of

becoming more amusing at every subsequent reading... I will

go so far as to claim that in the characters of Jim Hacker and

Sir Humphrey Appleby, Messrs Lynn and Jay have created

something as immortal as P. G. Wodehouse's Bertie Wooster

and Jeeves' - Brian Walden in The Standard
