'Each Haus book.....is handsomely presented, with first-rate and often rare photographs, helpful sidebars about relevant people and events, and illuminating quotes from other writers' assessments. Each book is roughly the same length allow[ing] the books to expand into the whole history of the time - political, social and economic - giving them more interest and texture than we would get from a canter through bills, crises and conferences.'

Simon Hoggart, New Statesman

'‘This is an extraordinary achievement, not least because the accounts of the lesser known are as riveting as chronicles of the famous.’

Weekly Standard


'Works of real distinction, based as they are on close study of the archives..... these 20 short volumes will prove of value not only to aspiring applicants to the premiership, but also to sixth formers or undergraduates.'
