An understanding of Lloyd George's long and prominent political
career can help to comprehend many of the key issues in modern
British history. Seen by some as "the man who won the war", he was
central to the political activity which appeared to secure the
pre-eminence of the Liberal party before the First World War, but
which later contributed to its reduction in status. His initiatives
in government, particularly in the area of social reform, helped to
redefine the relationship between the state and society and laid
the basis for the Welfare State. This pamphlet examines these
developments with reference to Lloyd George's Welsh background, his
personal ambitions and his response to the challenges posed to
Liberal society by radical conservatism and socialism. It draws on
the wealth of material that is now available to illuminate this
analytical study. This book should be of interest to introductory
level students of 20th-century British history.
