No Turning Back
The Peacetime Revolutions of Post-war Britain
No Turning Back assesses this fundamental transformation in which much has been gained and much also lost---above all, perhaps, a sense of the ties that used to bind people together. Throughout, Paul Addison brings to it the personal point of view of someone who has lived through it all and seen the Britain of his youth turn into a very different country, but who in the final reckoning still prefers the present to the past.--BOOK JACKET.
