title: Unleashing Demons: The Inside Story of Brexit
author:  Craig Oliver 
description: A gripping fly-on-the-wall account of the frenzy in Downing Street during the EU campaign.<b><i>Robert Peston</i></b><br /><br />Wish you could have been a fly on the wall of Number 10 during the EU referendum campaign? No need. This is the compelling insider's account of the man who was at the centre of the Downing Street web as David Cameron took the decisions which led to Britain voting to leave the EU.<b><i>Nick Robinson</i></b><br /><br />UNLEASHING DEMONS...HAS THE VIVIDNESS AND PACE OF A POLITICAL THRILLER. EXTRAORDINARILY CANDID...<b><i>Financial Times</i></b><br /><br />This is contemporary history at its best...It has pace, insider info and a bit of chutzpah.'<b><i>Iain Dale</i></b><br /><br />THE BOOK THAT WILL SET WESTMINSTER ABLAZE<b><i>Mail on Sunday</i></b><br /><br />Part memoir, part diary, this is one of the most vivid, frank and exciting inside accounts to have been written for years. It points its forensic beam into the inner sanctums of power during one of the most crucial episodes in British history since the war. Stunning and highly readable. It will make uncomfortable reading for a few, but hugely enlightening and enjoyable reading for the many.<b><i>Anthony Seldon</i></b><br /><br />Gripping reading<b><i>New Statesman</i></b><br /><br />Craig Oliver's account of his time as David Cameron's Director of Communications in Downing Street during the EU referendum will almost certainly prove to be the most important document for understanding what happened and why it all ended as it did. Oliver has managed the difficult trick of being frank as well as loyal, and his words have a remarkable immediacy. I found his book utterly fascinating, and I suspect that every historian of the period will regard it as indispensable to appreciating this extraordinary phase in our history.<b><i>John Simpson</i></b>

  t is time to pull the mighty down from their 
  thrones. There are ardent Brexiteers for whom 
  the only issue in the coming general election is to 
  “get Brexit done”, in the words of the fatuous 
  slogan that Boris Johnson works into almost every 
  sentence. There are Corbynites for whom their single 
  goal, to install their leader Jeremy Corbyn in 10 
  Downing Street, dwarfs all others. But neither of these 
  two groups of implacable zealots will decide the 
  outcome. That lies with those millio
