Review Quotes
This book represents a fascinating contribution to the study of British political history. By re-examining the 1922 General Election, it challenges entrenched narratives and provides new insights into the interplay of party politics, leadership, and voter behaviour during a transformative period. It will undoubtedly be of interest to historians of British politics, as well as political scientists studying electoral behaviour and party systems.
