Britain by Robert D Pearce

This volume provides an account of the history of industrial relations in Britain in the first half of the 20th century. Suitable for mainstream history students rather than just specialists in economic history, it provides an introduction and overview to this area of study. Key features include: it provides in-depth coverage of the General Strike which is placed in context of the inter-war period, rather than treated as an isolated event; introduces readers to the findings of recent research; and contains the usual "Access to History" series features of student guidance sections, giving advice on examination questions and note taking. Robert Pearce has also written "Britain: Domestic Politics, 1918-39" in the "Access" series, "The Turning Point in Africa: British Colonial Policy 1938-48, "Sir Bernard Bourdillon: the Biography of a Twentieth Century Colonialist" and "Mary Kingsley: Light at the Heart of Darkness".
