English History 1914-1945 by A J P Taylor

During ten of the 31 years between 1914 and 1945 the English people were involved in world wars; for 19 of the years they lived in the shadow of mass unemployment. These themes and the politics which sprang from them shape the narrative of this book.
This concluding volume of The Oxford History of England is vintage Taylor...It is also a superb recreation of an era, solidly based on an enormous range of significant materials and studded with judgments that continually compel one to question his own too-easy generalizations. * Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Sciences *
