Conclusion. 330 $a"In 1938: Modern Britain, Michael John Law demonstrates that our understanding of life in Britain just before the Second World War has been overshadowed by its dramatic political events. 1938 was the last year of normality, and Law shows through a series of case studies that in many ways life in that year was far more modern than might have been thought. By considering topics as diverse as the opening of a new type of pub, the launch of several new magazines, the emergence of push-button radios and large screen televisions sets, and the building of a huge office block, he reveals a Britain, both modern and intrigued by its own modernity, that was stopped in its tracks by war and the austerity that followed. For some, life in Britain was as consumerist, secular, Americanized and modern as it would become for many in the late 1950s and early 1960s Presenting a fresh perspective on an important year in British social history, illuminated by six engaging case studies, this is a key study for students and scholars of 20th-century Britain."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 606 $aSocial change$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y20th century 606 $2British & Irish history 607 $aGreat Britain$xSocial conditions$y20th century 615 0$aSocial change$xHistory 676 $a309.141082 700 $aLaw$b Michael John$01581646 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910796351403321 996 $a1938$93863342 997 $aUNINA
