McCarthy, John P., - Hilaire Belloc: Edwardian radical.

Indianapolis, Liberty, (1978). G PB. Best remembered today as a poet, literary critic and Catholic apologist, this new intellectual biography shows us another. Belloc, a radical-liberal, a staunch individualist who saw imperialist, protectionist, and collectivist departures from the radical ideal as largely motivated by the opportunity for private gain. Sheds new light on the roots of British and American social welfare legislation and he became convinced that party divisions and the "new liberalism" masked a fundamental subservience to a dominant plutocracy, and that England was moving toward a state which would be neither conventionally socialist nor conventionally capitalist, but servile. Spine tanned.
