State of emergency : the way we were : Britain, 1970-1974
"At the beginning of the 1970s, Britain seemed to be tottering on the brink of the abyss. Under the ungainly figure of Edward Heath, the optimism and prosperity of the sixties had become a distant memory. Now the headlines were dominated by strikes and blackouts, unemployment and inflation, car bombs and muggers. As the world looked on in horrified fascination, Britain seemed to be tearing itself apart. And yet amid all the gloom glittered a startling creativity and cultural dynamism that would continue to influence our lives long after the nightmares of the seventies had been forgotten."--Dust jacket flap.
