Thatcher’s name has long become a legend. Arguments around her persona still don’t quiet down. Born into an ordinary family, with no connections and no financial backing, she managed not only to lead the Conservative Party, but also to be elected Prime Minister three times in a row.

Was she truly “the Iron Lady,” or is that only a myth created at the time and constantly supported throughout the last decades? What made her refuse power at the peak of her might? What price did she pay for her success?
The answer to these and many other questions about one of the most astonishing women of our time is in Dmitry Medvedev’s new bestseller “Thatcher: The Unknown Meggy.”
