ANTHONY BARNETT Iron Britannia Why Parliament Waged Its Falklands War
1982, Allison & Busby First Edition Paperback B Format (7¾" x 5¼"). 160pp. Notes [Despite all the fanfare, one Briton in five opposed the Falklands War. Many more had serious doubts. Today the flag-waving has been replaced by a spirit of enquiry why did the war happen at all? Iron Britannia answers this question. It is not a book about the fighting. Instead it is a unique account of contemporary Britain witty, sardonic and factual. In a sobering conclusion, the author argues that the unleashed passions of national pride exhibited by British leaders of all parties, seems to confirm the pessimistic warnings of those who presage a nuclear holocaust.] Condition Very Good. Pages tanned otherwise a very well presented copy. ISBN: 0850314933.
