Anti-Fascism in Britain

Anti-Fascism in Britain is a comprehensive study in which the author approaches his subject in broad terms and offers a wealth of information and interpretation. The history of British anti-fascism is thoroughly explored from its early beginnings in the 1920s through to the present day. There are two chapters on the pre-1945 period in which dramatic episodes such as the "Battle of Cable Street" are covered while in other chapters, opposition to postwar fascism is subject to close investigation. Within this historical survey, the range of anti-fascist opposition, its organization, its tactics and strategies all form major issues for consideration.
