Thorpe's book is widely seen as the best single-volume study of the whole of the Labour party's history. Now thoroughly updated in the light of ongoing historiographical debates, this third edition brings the story up to the present with new and revised chapters on the development of 'New Labour' and the legacy of the Blair government.
The leading single-volume history of Britain's governing party is revised and updated in this timely new edition.The story and analysis is brought right up to the present day, including the recent appointment of Gordon Brown as the new Labour PM. This book offers a detailed historical analysis of Tony Blair's thirteen-year leadership. The appendices and bibliography are fully revised and updated to reflect the latest scholarship.

ANDREW THORPE is Professor of Modern British History at the University of Exeter, UK. His previous publications include Britain in the 1930s (Blackwell, 1992) and The Longman Companion to Britain in the Era of the World Wars (Longman, 1994).
