Rezensionen

'Renton writes with the range and forensic eye that has made him such a vital commentator on the political right and its history.'

Lawrence Black, Professor of Modern History, University of York, UK

'In a refreshing reversal of leftist histories that seek primarily to celebrate, David Renton's study is based on the premise that "we cannot understand the history of English socialism without understanding the people who resisted that form of politics". He encourages socialists to reflect how they communicate and engage with those they seek to persuade or overcome.'

Matthew Worley, Professor of Modern History, University of Reading, UK

'Detailed, well-researched and authoritative.'

Paul Jackson, Professor in the History of Radicalism & Extremism, University of Northampton, UK
