When the Lights Went Out by Andy Beckett
The seventies in modern British political history encompasses strikes that brought down governments, the rise of Margaret Thatcher and the fall of Edward Heath, the IMF crisis, the Winter of Discontent and the three-day week. This book goes in search of what really happened, what it felt like at the time, and where it was all leading.
Andy Beckett was born in 1969. He studied modern history at Oxford University and journalism at the University of California in Berkeley. He is a feature writer at the Guardian, and also writes for the London Review of Books and the New York Times magazine. He lives in London.
