Borrowed Time Story of Britain between the Wars

Little, Brown UK, 2007. First Edition. Hardcover. ISBN: 0316730327. First Editon. Green Hardcovers in Fine condition. A sound binding, clean pages, sharp corners. The DJ is in Near fine condition, unclipped, with a smalltera to the back cover bottom edge. "Called an uneasy peace, the twenty years between the wars were a time of turmoil - Britain saw a general strike and the worst economic crisis in its history, armed rebellion in Ireland and open revolt in India, a Prime Minister's resignation and the King's abdication. Crisis followed crisis until Britain was engulfed in the Second World War - a catastrophe that could have been foreseen, possibly even prevented. But there were also moments of triumph: England regained the Ashes and Britain ran to glory in the 'Chariots of Fire' Olympic Games; the BBC was born and became the envy of the free world; there was a renaissance in poetry, sculpture of genius, and cinema lightened the darkness for millions.
