The twenty-five year period following the Second World War saw
an enormous expansion of activity in the writing of the history of
modern Britain, and with that expansion a major transformation of
the state of knowledge in many parts of the area. First published
in 1970, this Revivals reissue, which includes an extensive
coverage of books and a reasonable selection of articles,
endeavours both to survey the work done and to reduce it to some
comprehensible order. It indicates achievements and probable lines
of development, and collects the materials that have grown around
the main controversies. Omitted are local history (in the main) and
the history of empire and commonwealth, except where the latter
really arises out of the affairs of the mother country. There are
special sections on social history, the history of ideas, Scotland
and Ireland.
