I tried to buy a copy of this book on July 4 (Charter day/Independence Day) from Charter Books, but Charter Books do not serve overseas customers. Charter books are too new, have too high prices, and have yet to sell anything. Thus I am unable to become the Charter Customer of Charter Book. Darn.

I am buying a copy "Memories of Maggie", from another source.
I will be particularly interested in what the book says about Thatcher's younger days in a grocer's shop, where she probably learned to serve the customer's interest, except occassionally when the customer's needs could not be met, and the young Thatcher could shine explaining alternatives.

Thus Thatcher become a World Leader with a non-self-serving frame of mind (I admit to not liking her at the time), unlike many other tyrants for whom self-servingness is a way of life. The Thatcher revolution "chartered" a new way.

Back to Charter Books. So long as other book shops in the neighbourhood sell at normal prices, there is nothing wrong in you selling at tenfold prices, though you may need to make exceptions from time to time.

The writer thinks it will be useful to be able to compare the Thatcher grocer store and things like charter books ... ...

Thus concludes the Charter review of "Memories of Maggie".
