| Description: |
From Joynson-Hicks to John Reith; from Amy Johnson to T.E. Lawrence, Ronald Blythe looks behind the garish facade of Britain in the 1930s and reveals the birth of the modern Intelligentsia. |
| Synopsis: |
The author of Akenfield's brilliant reconstruction of life in England between the wars, a period abounding with astonishing figures from Joynson-Hicks cleaning up London's morals while defending the shooting of 379 Indians at Amritsar, to T.E. Lawrence, Mrs Meyrick being regularly raided at the '43', and the Rector of Stiffkey's remarkable capers. |
