Clem Attlee: Labour's Great Reformer
ISBN: 9781910376058 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. As British prime minister from 1945 to 1951, Clement Attlee built a legacy that includes today s famous and controversial National Health Service, yet he is often remembered as a rather dull political figure. Rejecting Winston Churchill s jibe that Attlee was a modest little man with plenty to be modest about, this biography makes the case that his reputation as Britain s greatest reforming prime minister is fully deserved.
Building on his earlier work on Attlee and including new research and stories, many of which are published here for the first time, Francis Beckett highlights Attlee...

Stalin's British Victims
ISBN: 9781138947412 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. First published in 2004, this book tells the stories of four remarkable British women, whose lives were scorched by Stalin s purges. One was shot as a spy; one nearly died as a slave labourer in Kazakhstan; and two saw their husbands taken away to the gulag and had to spirit their small children out of the country. We think of the horrors of the middle of the twentieth century- the Holocaust in Central Europe, the purges in the Soviet Union- as something foreign: terrible, but remote. Rosal Rust, Rose Cohen, Freda Utley, and Pearl Rimel were all Londoners. Like hundreds of young,...

First published in 2010, this book explores the legacy of the baby boomers: the generation who, born in the aftermath of the Second World War, came of age in the radical sixties where for the first time since the War, there was freedom, money, and safe sex. In this book, Francis Beckett argues that what began as the most radical-sounding generation for half a century turned into a random collection of youthful style gurus, sharp-toothed entrepreneurs and management consultants who believed revolution meant new ways of selling things; and Thatcherites, who thought freedom meant free...
