Access to History: Britain: Domestic Politics, 1918-39, 2nd Edition (2nd ed)

This text has been revised and updated to provide a clear assessment of Britain in the interwar years.

The author examines the problems faced by Britain during this period, the policies adopted by each government to combat them, the fortunes of the political parties and the personalities of the leading politicians.

Political developments are placed within the broad context of economic change and foreign policy.

The author also discusses the challenges posed by British fascists and communists in the 1930s.

The book shows 1918-39 to be a period rich in controversy, when Britain for the first time became a democratic state.
