Abstract

Thinking he would be merely a ‘footnote in history’, ex-Chancellor of the Exchequer Alistair Darling instead found himself at the centre of the worst banking crises in over a century. Scott Levin reviews Darling’s autobiography Back from the Brink and finds he does not pull all of his punches as he adds yet another chip into the already mangled armour of Labour’s post-Blair years. Back from the Brink: 1,000 Days at Number 11. Alistair Darling. Atlantic Books. September 2011.
