Acclaim for FREE AT LAST! Diaries 1991-2001: 'Easily the best of the year's diaries... It proves to be an astonishingly moving and human document' Anthony Howard, Sunday Times 'Delightful... a human, humorous and touching account of his political and domestic life, when so many politicians are writing pompous and self-serving memoirs, and who has contributed a unique record of political life for which all historians will be grateful.' Anthony Sampson, The Oldie 'I enjoyed the latest volume of Tony Benn's diaries even more than its predecessors. This volume covers the last decade when he was sidelined from New Labour but his assiduous day-by-day chronicles are nonetheless absorbing.' Martin Rees, The Times 'The new volume is, to my mind, the best... he discards his Sunday best and allows himself to emerge as a human being full of weakness and anxieties balanced by an enviable capacity for love and joy' Craig Brown, Mail on Sunday 'There is a passion in Benn's writing and speaking that far transcends the miserable aspirations of most contemporary politicians' Paul Foot, GuardianBenn, Tony is the author of 'More Time for Politics: Diaries 2001-2007', published 2007 under ISBN 9780091920562 and ISBN 0091920566.
