The Long Week End: A Social History of Great Britain

A classic social history by two distinguished writers who lived through the time. "The long week-end" is the authors evocative phrase for the period in Great Britains social history between the twin devastations of the Great War and World War II. From a postwar period of prosperity and frivolity through the ever-darkening decade of the thirties, <i>The Long Week-End</i> deftly and movingly preserves the details and captures the spirit of the time.
