The much anticipated memoir from Nicola Sturgeon, Scotland's first female and longest serving First Minister.

Nicola Sturgeon’s memoir will chart how she went from being a shy child from a working-class family in Ayrshire to the steps of Bute House as Scotland’s first female and longest serving First Minister.

It will detail her interactions with a range of notable figures, giving her unique in-the-room perspective on the most eventful and tumultuous era in modern Scottish and British politics. She will cover all the important events and debates of her time, including the establishment of the Scottish Parliament, the SNP’s election to government, the Scottish Independence Referendum, Brexit, Covid and much more. The result will be a deeply personal and revealing memoir from one of Britain’s most significant political leaders of recent times.
