Publisher's Synopsis

Opposites in most respects, Hugh Cudlipp and Cecil Harmsworth King were the "Barnum and Bailey" of Fleet Street. Together they created the world's biggest publishing empire, but their relationship foundered sensationally in 1968 when, as King tried to topple the Prime Minister, Cudlipp toppled King.
