I'm going to guess that they're are talking about this book

Rather than go to Amazon I paid full price for mine and got it from Foyles in Charing Cross Rd but in hindsight I should've got it directly from the gaffer.

Yep ,you can buy it from Amazon, but felt a bit better buying it direct .

Very clear read, well laid out and no junk to wade through. Straight to the point. Best buy in weeks (even after buying Tony Blair's 'Journey')

Nope, prime read that Blair book. He royally hangs out most of the labour party for what they were. Fair play to him.
