Stanley Baldwin (1867-1947) is one of the most significant modern
British politicians, but also one of the most controversial and
puzzling. As Conservative leader and three times prime minister,
Baldwin presided over the beginning of his party's long
twentieth-century dominance. He did so in new and difficult
conditions: the onset of modern democratic politics, the rise of
Labour, chronic economic depression, the General Strike, persistent
newspaper attacks, imperial discontent, the Abdication, and the
threats from Mussolini and Hitler. This book provides an
understanding of Baldwin's career, including a serious analysis of
the moral and intellectual influences of his early life. Its main
concerns are the investigation of a Conservative mind, and its
communication with the various audiences that constituted the
political nation. This is not a conventional biography, but rather
an examination of the nature of political leadership, Conservative
politics and 'national values'.
