Students of both politics and history will find this a rewarding and enjoyable read as will members of the Labour Party.' - Timothy Heppell, University of Leeds 'Thorpe writes in a clear and accessible manner, ensuring that his work will appeal not only to students of political history but also to a much wider audience seeking to understand the changing fortunes of the Labour Party.' - Emma Bell, Universite de Savoie Mont-Blanc in Cercles 'Jeremy Corbyn's remarkable victory in last summer's leadership contest has reignited historical interest in the British Labour Movement.
