Summary:"Stanley Baldwin (1867-1947) is one of the most significant modern British politicians, but also one of the most controversial and puzzling." "This book provides a new understanding of Baldwin's career, including the first serious analysis of the moral and intellectual influences of his early life. Its main concerns are the investigation of a Conservative mind, and its communication with the various audiences that constituted the political nation. This is not a conventional biography but rather an examination of the nature of political leadership, Conservative politics, and 'national values'."--BOOK JACKET.
