Rezensionen

'Packer has produced a highly-competent and shrewd account of the Liberal governments and their problems. His book will serve as a helpful introduction to a period of considerable importance.' - Michael Bentley, Archives: The journal of the British Records Association

'...this slim yet thoroughly-researched book breaks significant new ground...this is a book that should appeal to anybody interested in the history of the Liberal Party, and one which will be of considerable utility in a teaching context.' - Paul Readman, Journal of Liberal History
