The Alistair Campbell diaries

I’m just finishing a 500-page book on the Second World War, so – in spite of being something of a political junkie – I’m not sure that I will immediately take up the 800-page Alistair Campbell diaries which are published tomorrow. However, I have read today’s “Observer” profile of Campbell, I am checking out the official web site for the diaries, and I will be watching the three-part television series which starts on BBC 2 on Wednesday.
