The historical material in Chapter 1 and elsewhere is the writer's own, derived from both experience and his teaching of Social and Economic History; and is influenced by much of what he has read; if there are echoes in it of views expressed better in books by Corelli Barnett and Roy Hattersley, among others, this is no accident.
