ENGLAND'S RISE and DECLINE
Jon Lee Junior
"The read that exposes 'political correctness' for the fraud we suspected it to be."
'England's Rise and Decline' first reminds us what it was that once made Britain's economy the world's super-leader. It then explains how England consolidated her position globally, in particular through her 'special relationship' with America.
Her decline, meanwhile, is seen as a result of the 'Victorian hypocrisy' of the town-based, college-educated professional. That same middle-class sanctimony is the root of today's ultra-liberal 'p.c.' movements.
Instructively detailed in its history, yet breathtakingly sweeping in its strategic scope, the book is always startling, original and interesting - even if you don't agree with its clearly explained viewpoints.
A fun and readable - but gritty - work of history and political theory for the age of Trump and Brexit. Not a book for smug liberals or for fans of Tony Blair.
