Overview
Offering fresh insights and new perspectives on the Conservative administrations of the 1950s and 60s; on Britain's withdrawal from Rhodesia; and on Alport's contemporaries including "Rab" Butler, Harold Macmillan, Enoch Powell, Iain Macleod, Edward Heath and Margaret Thatcher, the book provides an assessment not just of the political fortunes of one man but of the Conservative Party as a whole. Drawing on interviews with participants as well as extensive archival research including exclusive access to Alport's own papers - the book is an important addition to the literature on postwar British politics and the history of the Conservative Party.Book Details
