As Conservative party leader from 1923 to 1937 and three times
prime minister, Stanley Baldwin was one of the pre-eminent public
figures of interwar Britain. This edition of his letters, reports
of his private conversations and related documents and
illustrations, has two purposes. It publishes sources giving
considerable insight into the nature and conduct of Conservative
politics and government, with inside accounts of such national
events as the destruction of the Lloyd George coalition, the
protectionist election, and the Abdication. It also provides a
documentary life and portrait of an intriguing, much-liked but
controversial statesman. The personal qualities of few modern
politicians have aroused so much puzzlement and criticism as
Baldwin's. This volume will therefore be indispensable for
understanding his character and career and for future studies of
British politics and public life in the 1920s and 1930s.
