Book Synopsis The Churchill Coalition and Wartime Politics, 1940-1945 by : Kevin Jefferys
Book excerpt: In this revisionist study, Jefferys challenges many long-held assumptions about British politics in the period between 1939 and 1945. Drawing on a range of unpublished sources, he challenges the notion of consensus as a guiding principle of politics in the 1940s and argues that wartime coalition masked the continuance of profound disagreements about the future direction of economic and social policy.
