The Iron Lady's rise, told by people who absolutely despised her.
Nicknamed the "Iron Lady," Margaret Thatcher served as the prime minister of England from 1979 to 1990. The daughter of a local businessman, she was educated at the local grammar school. Her family operated a grocery store and they all lived in an apartment above the store. In her early years Thatcher was introduced to conservative politics by her father who was a member of the townʼs council.
