'New Statesman' - Portrait of a Political Weekly 1913-1931 (Paperback)

This volume reveals how a fledgling Fabian journal came to play a key role in the growth of the modern Labour Party. Placing the early New Statesman in the context of its eight turbulent decades as a flagship of the Left, the book compares the magazine's first journalists with later generations of editors and writers. By drawing upon interviews with survivors, and a wide range of public and personal papers, the author rediscovers the early - and lasting - importance of the British Left's best-known and most resilient magazine.
