Middleland: Dispatches from the Borders

"Brought to you by Penguin. From the No. 1 Sunday Times bestselling author of POLITICS ON THE EDGE and co-host of THE REST IS POLITICS Rory Stewart spent nearly a decade as a MP of Britain’s most rural constituency, Penrith and the Border. As he came to know and love this part of Cumbria, he found inspiration in the beauty of its landscape, its rugged history as a frontierland, and in the spirit of its people. Drawing on pieces originally written for a local newspaper, Middleland is an unforgettable portrait of rural Britain today – a place caught in tensions between farming and the natural world, between the need to preserve and to grow, between local and national politics – as well as a timeless evocation of the history, people and landscape of Cumbria. © Rory Stewart 2025 (P) Penguin Audio 2025"

Politics On the Edge

"The searing inside story of our broken politics from the former Cabinet minister and co-host of The Rest Is Politics. Over the course of a decade, Rory Stewart went from being a political outsider to standing for prime minister – before being sacked from a Conservative Party that he had come to barely recognise. Uncompromising, honest and darkly humorous, this is his story of the challenges, absurdities and realities of political life. Instantly praised as a new classic, it is an astonishing portrait of our turbulent times. BRITISH BOOK AWARDS NON-FICTION BOOK OF THE YEAR 2024 ‘Rory Stewart’s Politics on the Edge digs deeper than most. As well as a fascinating insider account of the Cameron-May-Johnson premierships, it is a scathing portrait of our flawed political system and a “rebarbative profession” that, despite Stewart’s appetite for public service, chewed him up and spat him out’ GUARDIAN ‘Genuinely eye-opening…always riveting, often horrifying’ iNEWS ‘Hugely entertaining’ EVENING STANDARD ‘The most exceptional political memoir I’ve ever read’ ALAN JOHNSON ‘An instant classic’ MARINA HYDE ‘At last a politician who can write’ SEBASTIAN FAULKS * A BOOK OF THE YEAR FOR THE FT, GUARDIAN, SUNDAY TIMES, TELEGRAPH, TIMES, OBSERVER, i NEWSPAPER, NEW STATESMAN, PROSPECT, CHURCH TIMES AND SCOTSMAN * © 2023 Rory Stewart (P)2023 Penguin Audio"
