DILNOT, FRANK. England after the war. *$3 Doubleday 914.2
20–20324
England, says the author, is in a stage of transition and is entering upon a new epoch. What this new epoch is likely to be does not enter into the speculations of the writer who confines himself to sketching the main features of England in their present state of transformation. Among the contents are: The mood of the people; The governance of England; The women; Business the keystone; Labour battling for enthronement; Ireland; Britain overseas; From Lord Northcliffe to Bernard Shaw; Where England leads; New programmes of life.
