In a century of rapid social change, the British people have experienced two world wars, the growth of the welfare state and the loss of Empire.
Charles More looks at these and other issues in a comprehensive study of Britains political, economic and social history throughout the twentieth century. This accessible new book also engages with topical questions such as the impact of the Labour party and the role of patriotism in British identity.
Charles More has published a widely read textbook on modern British economic and social history, The Industrial Age: Economy and Society in Britain 1750-1995, (1989, 1997) and numerous other books and articles, especially on the history of education and of work. He has taught modern British and European history at the University of Gloucestershire since 1980.
