Summary:
"The period between 1885 and 1939 was a pivotal half-century in
British history in which the Victorian political system yielded to a
system far more recognisably modern in response to popular pressure
for social reform and the implications of global superpower
status."--BOOK JACKET. "Dr. Davis relates these political
developments to the background of social and economic change and to
the consequences of Britain's position as an imperial power. Drawing
extensively upon the new historical scholarship of the 1980s and
1990s, John Davis presents an original analysis of political change
in a crucial period of Britain's recent past."--BOOK JACKET.
