"U-turn if you want to," she taunted her critics in 1980 "the Lady's not for turning." Her supporters loved her for it. Margaret Thatcher, Britain’s first female prime minister and one of the most influential world leaders of the 20th century, is no longer with us. However, this lavish 2005  tribute, published to celebrate her 80th birthday, is a good way to remember 'Maggie'. Illustrated with 200 color photographs, Margaret Thatcher: a tribute in words and pictures brings together more than 100 personal reminiscences from major world figures, among them Ronald and Nancy Reagan, Mikhail Gorbachev and Henry Kissinger, as well as some of Britain’s leading journalists, both allies and opponents of the Iron Lady.
