内容简介：
This world of ours is so interesting, with so many world leaders making a huge contribution to life. They give us a sense of security, wealth, good health provision, and help us to resolve issues, some of which affect parts of the world where there is so much evidence of poverty. I have included some who are leaders and some from a humble background yet who have made a difference to the quality of peopleas lives whether by entertainment or politics; they all have had a part to play. This account of how leaders have made decisions about so many citizens and the effect on them is well researched and put into poetic style in a way that is informative and written with a sense of humour. Walking into the lives of my asubjectsa has been a real experience, and I am so very glad to have shared it with you. Once you start reading Fifty World Greats you will not want to put it down till you finish. I feel that I have held a little bit of history in my hand and blown it away in a kiss.
