Classes, Culture, and Politics investigates those fields in British
history that have been illustrated by the works of Ross McKibbin,
one of the foremost historians of twentieth century Britain.
Written by a distinguished team of scholars, it examines McKibbin's
life and thought, and explores the implications of his arguments.
One of his most important achievements has been to break down the
artificial barriers that existed between 'social' and 'political'
history, in order to enrich the writing of both; that legacy is
reflected throughout this volume.
This lively and readable study explores popular music between the wars, the era of Noel Coward and Ivor Novello, Gracie Fields and George Formby. James J. Nott tells the story from the days of the jazz mania of the 1920s to the outbreak of the Second World War. He examines the huge popularity of dance halls such as the fabled Hammersmith Palais, and concludes with a fascinating checklist of the most popular songs.
