For more than 50 years Lord Beaverbrook, born plain Max Aitken in Canada in 1879, was a key figure in British public life--press baron, cabinet minister, friend and collaborator of the rich and famous. In this ground-breaking biography, the authors have drawn upon dozens of interviews and hitherto-unexplored documentary material to create a fascinating portrait of the man and his times.
