Book Description
'Why did you go into politics in the first place?' A question that former Cabinet minister has found himself asked, and indeed asking himself, over the years, Lord Waldegrave's is a life lived through politics. The youngest of seven children, and the son of an earl, Waldegrave's quintessentially English upbringing would go on to shape the course of his life, instilling in him a sense of independence and self-discipline needed to steel one for a successful career in government. Formative years spent at Eton, Oxford and Harvard fortified his resolve to enter the political establishment, and by the early seventies he finally achieved his greatest ambition. As an fearless young Conservative politician in the seventies and eighties, one who witnessed the fall of Heath and the triumph and eventual decline of Thatcher, Waldegrave was firmly at the heart of one of the most exciting and tumultuous periods of modern British history. However just as his star was in the ascent, Waldegrave became embroiled in a scandal which tarnished his reputation, but could not dampen his voracious enthusiasm for the political game. An unembroidered account of the narcotic effect of politics from one of the most fiercely intellectual governmental figures of the modern age, A Different Kind of Weather is a beautifully weighted memoir of political success and failure, and the passing of an era. A Spectator Book of the Year - 'refreshingly and engagingly candid' (Jane Ridley)

Book Description
Life! The biggest roller coaster ride one goes through. Everything, everyone that comes across during this ride must contribute something to it. May it be your daily routine, may it be your daily habit, may it be your passion, may it be your habits, may it be your pet, may it be a person, your bae, your sibling, or your someone special. They are as much precious as oxygen is. Someone might have hurt you, but in return, someone would have loved you too. If something has let you down, then there must be something that has lightened you. Just a morning walk can change your mood for the entire day; a cute fight with your sibling can even make you smile. Just a ping at the end of the day from your special one can bring a smile to your face, just a touch from your parents can heal your entire pain, just a call from your bae can resolve all your issues, just a fairytale dream is enough to make you motivated. The only thing the author has tried to convey to her valuable and lovely readers is that ‘Accept life as it is, then only you can get the best out of it. Just keep on loving it.’
