1- Is it sufficient for both papers
2-Can one score good marks by studying this book
3-If its not sufficient which book can be supplemented along with it

I would be grateful for the advice

Brother ! In no way is this book sufficient.
One can't score well merely depending on it.
Specially for Paper B , it does not provide standard material.
For paper II , do consult Norman Lowe 's book.
And for paper I also , take help from the book of P. C Thomas a book whose copy seems to be the book by S. M. Qayyum.
Paper I is easy but paper II is confusing one.
Till Churchill one should use Lowe's book.
And for afterwards , like for Thatcher and Tony Blairs one has to take assistance from Internet. But keep my words , don't rely wholly on S. M. Qayyum.

Brother I would suggest Norman Lowe.
One of the friends is using V. D. Mahajan.
Another is using Southgate.
Many are using Lowe. And they got good score last year and this time they have their written cleared.
Lowe's book is easily available in market.
