    Author Roy Hattersley
    “Book Descriptions: This is a good potted history of the Edwardian era written in 2004 by (Lord) Roy Hattersley, former Deputy Leader of the Labour Party, who personally knew a number of the politicians he writes so eloquently about (Lloyd George, Churchill). It draws on previously unpublished diaries and letters so is a useful addition to any bookshelf dedicated to politics and social history. The book has good Notes and a detailed index.

    Lord Hattersley, a well respected British politician and journalist, writes well and lucidly, unlike many social historians.”
