Britain in the Depression by John Stevenson

The 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. The authors look behind the legends for an objective - and timely - reassessment, as Britain again struggles with the economic and spiritual ills of recession, depression and unemployment.
'One of the most relentlessly brilliant studies of twentieth-century Britain yet publishedxxx; these young historians have found a marvellous theme and stuck to itTheirs is the glory! History
