Beyond the Dreams of Avarice offers analysis of who were the very
rich, and how did this change over the past 250 years? How did the
rich respond to the poor during the nineteenth century? How did the
rich class contract, due to high taxation, between about 1920 and
1965? Why are levels of wealth reaching unprecedented figures
today? Why was London more important in wealth generation than the
north of England? Who was a "self-made man" (or woman), and what
was the role of inherited wealth? Were Britain's elite groups based
largely on money, as in the United States? How do the rich in
Britain compare with the rich in America and Europe?
