Tony Blair to release memoir
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONDON — Will he expose the deal critics suspect carried Britain and the United States to war in Iraq? Take aim at those who dubbed him President George Bush's poole? Describe his furious arguments with successor Gordon Brown?
Probably not. But Tony Blair promised Thursday to give the public intimate insight into his
Publisher Random House paid an estimated 5 million pounds ($7.5 million) for Blair's personal account of his time in power, after a bidding war that Washington literary power-broker Robert Barnett described as among the most fierce in memory.
decade as British Prime Minister when his much anticipated memoir, "The Journey," is published in September.
"I have tried to write a book which describes the human as much as the political dimensions of life as prime minister," Blair said in a statement. "Though necessarily retrospective, it is an attempt to inform and shape current and future thinking as much as a historical account of the past."
The book will be closely read for revelations about the push to war in Iraq, tense negotiations to win peace in Northern Ireland and Blair's sometime troubled relationship with Brown, who succeeded
him as leader in 2007.
In being published in September, Blair's autobiography won't appear before Britain's next national election — likely to be held on May 6. Blair won three straight election victories for his Labour Party from 1997.

Ready for Revue
Deborah Fraser/KANSAN
Erin Meyer, a senior from Lenexa, and Katie Kisner, a junior from Lawrence, get ready in the dressing rooms during the dress rehearsal for Rock Chalk Revue on Wednesday evening. Student organizations will perform short musical productions in the show. "We've spent one to four hours a day since the beginning of second semester," said Bryce Kellerman, a junior from Kansas City. Students missed the KU basketball game against K-State for the rehearsal. "It's a little rough," said Jerry Goscha, a freshman from Salina. "But we have a radio in the bathroom. We'll be listening." The Revue performances begin Thursday evening at the Uied Center and continue through Saturday.
