The slump : Britain in the Great Depression

John Stevenson and Chris Cook

'One of the most relentlessly brilliant studies of twentieth-century Britain ...these young historians have found a marvellous theme and stuck to it. Theirs is the glory!' Professor Arthur Marwick, HistoryThe 1930s - remembered as the decade of dole queues and hunger marches, mass unemployment, the means test, and the rise of fascism - also saw the development of new industries, the growth of comfortable suburbia, and rising standards of living for many. In Britain in the Depression, the authors look behind the legends for an objective - and timely - reassessment, as Britain again struggles with the economic and spiritual ills of recession and unemployment.
