Menzies Campbell: My Autobiography

Posted at 1:46PM Wednesday 19 Mar 2008

This is a gentle and enjoyable book which will be appreciated by people as nice as Sir Menzies Campbell is himself. But the reader may be struck by the author's decision to top and tail these memoirs with the two greatest defeats of his tripartite career as sprinter, lawyer and politician.
