Description: You May Never See Us Again by Jane Martinson Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description The untold story of David and Frederick Barclay, impoverished twin brothers who built a powerful secretive empire before falling out over money and succession.You May Never See Us Again is the only definitive story of David and Frederick Barclay - commonly known as the Barclay brothers. Born poor, these enigmatic twins built one of the biggest fortunes in Britain together and spent six decades at the epicentre of British business, media and politics. Their empire, said to be worth e7bn at its height, included Littlewoods, the Ritz, The Daily Telegraph and the channel island of Brecqhou. They were major advocates for Brexit and well-connected with politicians including Margaret Thatcher, Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage.And yet despite their fortune and influence, their desire for privacy has meant that their story remained largely unknown - until a very public family dispute pitched Barclay against Barclay in the High Court.Journalist Jane Martinson unravels the fascinating story of these once inseparable brothers. Through their lives she offers compelling insights into post-war Britain, from the conditions that enabled their way of doing business to thrive through to the tightly enmeshed webs of influence between capitalism, politics and the media that shape Britain today.

In 2018 she became the Professor of Financial Journalism at City, University of London and started to investigate the Barclay brothers soon after.
