Title: Momentum
Description: "Mo Mowlam is one of the most respected and best-loved figures in British life. In Momentum she tells the story of her time in government in her own words." "She writes about the months leading up to the 1997 General Election, and Labour's landslide victory; and the treatment she underwent for a brain tumour while working towards that victory. She tells the inside story of her time as Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, the first successful reaching out to Sinn Fein and the tortuous progress towards the 1998 Good Friday Agreement, the Referendum and working to set up the political institutions agreed. The characters and the chemistry of this time are analysed with the candour, warmth and humour that are Mo Mowlam's trademarks."--BOOK JACKET.
