Classes and cultures : England 1918-1951

Ross McKibbin investigates the ways in which 'class culture' characterized English society and intruded into every aspect of life during the period from 1918 to the mid-1950s. He demonstrates the influence of social class within the mini cultures which together constitute society: families and family life, friends and neighbours, the workplace, schools and colleges, religion, sexuality, sport, music, film, radio; and examines how increasing Americanization affected these cultures.
