Publisher's description:
Bounded by the Great War on one side and by the looming shadow of the Second World War on the other, the inter-war period has characteristically been portrayed as a time of unremitting poverty, rising crime and mass unemployment. This work shows how the British people reacted to the privations of wartime by indulging in leisure activities.
