Gladstone was 84 when he stepped down as Prime Minister for the last time, but his life-style made few concessions to his age. His vast diary, together with a wealth of personal and official documentation, in H.C.G. Matthew's acclaimed edition forms a monument to one of the greatest statesmen of modern history.
