The 1950s was a period of unprecedented growth at home, but it also witnessed Britain's diminishing influence on the world stage, with growing dependence on the US, the withdrawal from Empire and failure to join the European Community. Based on the latest research, this book provides fresh analysis of these events and assesses the political record of the four consecutive Conservative premierships who brought these changes about.
