After winning Oxford University's top poetry prize he embarked on an adventurous career, brushing shoulders with billionaires, spies and prime ministers.
Stanley Johnson appears in conversation with Sir Hayden Phillips.
'A wonderful jaw-dropping account of a rollercoaster life. Johnson senior does not disappoint... the book is a triumph'
