Hanley, Lynsey2007
Book
Writing with passion, humour, and a sense of history, Lynsey Hanley recounts the rise of social housing a century ago, its adoption as a fundamental right by leaders of the social welfare state in mid-century and its decline - as both idea and reality - in the 1960s and 70s.
