Guardian Bookshop Notes:

The enthralling story of the life Clark himself chose not to discuss, drawing on previously unpublished diaries and letters. From his unhappy childhood, neglectful parents and schooling at Eton to his work as an author and politician, there is much that Clark neglected to tell that is revealed here, and Trewin also looks at his far from perfect marriage: despite numerous affairs, he and Jane stayed together until his death in 1999. Illustrated in colour and b/w.

Publisher's description:
