His emergence as Labour Party leader in 1994 marked a seismic shift in British politics. Within a few short years, he had transformed his party and rallied the country behind him, becoming prime minister in 1997 with the biggest victory in Labour's history, and bringing to an end eighteen years of Conservative government. He took Labour to a historic three terms in office as Britain's dominant political figure of the last two decades. In this firsthand account, he describes his role in shaping our recent history, from the aftermath of Princess Diana's death to the War on Terror. He explores the challenges of leadership, and the ramifications of standing up, clearly and forcefully, for what one believes in. He also looks ahead, to emerging power relationships and economies, addressing the vital issues and complexities of our global world.--From publisher description. 000344059 60010 $$aBlair, Tony,$$d1953- 000344059 61020 $$aLabour Party (Great Britain)$$vBiography. 000344059 650_0 $$aPrime ministers$$zGreat Britain$$vBiography. 000344059 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xPolitics and government$$y1997-2007. 000344059 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xForeign relations$$y1997- 000344059 85200 $$bgen$$hDA591.B56$$iA3$$i2010 000344059 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:344059$$pGLOBAL_SET 000344059 980__ $$aBIB 000344059 980__ $$aBOOK
