This is a book associated with a very good BBC TV documentary series from a few years back. Andrew Marr is a well-known BBC political analyst. As you rightly say, this is primarily a book about the political history of Britain since WWII. It would only be considered "left-leaning" from an American perspective, I believe. I bought it in an Amazon UK sale a while ago.
