A classic social history by two distinguished writers who lived through the time. 'The long weekend' is the authors' evocative phrase for the period in Great Britain's social history between the twin devastations of the Great War and World War II. From a postwar period of prosperity and frivolity through the everdarkening decade of the thirties, The Long WeekEnd deftly and movingly preserves the details and captures the spirit of the time.
