The Blair Years is a revealing collection of diary entries from Alastair Campbell, who was the Director of Communications and Strategy for former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair. The book covers Campbell’s insider perspective on key political events, decisions, and behind-the-scenes moments during Blair’s time in office (1997–2007).
 
The diaries offer an unvarnished look at the workings of government, political spin, and the pressures of managing media relations in turbulent times, including the lead-up to the Iraq War. Campbell’s frank and often candid accounts highlight his role as a powerful political strategist and the challenges faced by the Blair administration.
