Críticas:

“This new study of the early political career of Sir Oswald Mosley ... is both a perceptive biography of the ambitious baronet and a painstaking reconstruction of the wider political ideas and context of the 1920s. ... Howell’s study is an important contribution to the historiography, which combines thoughtful analysis of Mosley’s early years in politics with a comprehensive understanding of the internal politics of the Labour movement of the 1920s.” (Steven Woodbridge, Parliamentary History, Vol. 35 (2), June, 2016)

“The book is an excellent contribution to scholarship not only about Mosley, but also about Conservative and Labour politics of the 1920s. ... The book contains solid analyses of Mosley’s politics and elections prior to his entrance into fascist politics. ... The book is an excellent and welcomed study about inter-war politics and Oswald Mosley.” (Ryan Shaffer, History - Journal of the Historical Association, January, 2016)

'David Howell superbly charts Mosley's remarkable political journey across the political spectrum in the years following the First World War. His book is a brilliant & unique exploration of early 20th century political thought, postwar British political history and the personal odyssey of one of the most remarkable political figures of the time.' - Stewart Wood, Lord Wood of Anfield

Reseña del editor:
Oswald Mosley's political trajectory during the 1920s began with semi-detached Conservatism, shifted to high minded Liberalism and subsequently to the Labour Party. His youth, aristocratic style ,campaigning energy and money appealed to many of his new comrades whilst arousing the jealousy of rivals. For Mosley Labour would hopefully be the effective instrument for economic modernization and national regeneration. The culmination of his Labour career came with office in the 1929 Government. Frustration at the economic orthodoxy of ministerial colleagues led to resignation and failed attempts to secure support from the independently minded of all parties. The consequence was his rejection of the established institutions and procedures of British politics. The failed initiative of the New Party was followed by the launching of the British Union of Fascists. This odyssey illuminates the marginalization of a precocious talent and thereby the complexities of a party system facing the challenges of mass electoral democracy and economic crisis.
