Reception

In the London Review of Books, Ian Jack declared that it was, as of 2017, "the fullest and most reliable account of the [Brexit referendum] campaign".[2] In The Guardian, Will Hutton called it "excellent", observing that "there seems to be no one to whom [Shipman] hasn't spoken and whose motives he does not pretty accurately portray and understand."[3] Stephen Bush of New Statesman praised Shipman's "lucid prose".[4] The Economist found it to be "thorough, comprehensive and utterly gripping", and noted the "remarkably short time" in which Shipman wrote it.[5]
