Excellent and provocative new history
*Mail on Sunday*
An admirable model of how political history should be written
*Times Literary Supplement*
Overall the book is... spliced with incisive arguments and
interspersed with challenging verdicts on Labour's evolution...
This ambitious Labour history could well become compulsory reading
for future party leaders
*History Today*
A startlingly revisionist book... The most provocative and
clear-eyed history of the party yet... It is a tribute to Pugh's
scholarship that almost everybody will learn something new from
this thoughtful book
*Sunday Times*
A stimulating survey
*Literary Review*
