The abolition of Britain : from Winston Churchill to Princess Diana
Hitchens, Peter, 1951-2018
Books
Hitchens identifies everything that he feels has gone wrong with Britain since the Second World War and makes the case for the 'many millions who feel that they have become foreigners in their own land and wish with each succeeding day that they could turn the clock back'. Writing with brilliance and flair, Hitchens targets the pernicious effects of TV culture, the corruption and decay of English language, the loss of deference and the syrupy confessional mood brought on by the death of Princess Diana. This new revised edition includes a brand new chapter bringing the book up-to-date and including the consequences of the 2016 Brexit vote.
