In May 1926, Britain was gripped by the General Strike. This downing of tools lasted for nine days, during which time it divided the people, threatened the survival of the government and brought the country nearer to revolution than perhaps it had ever been. Symons draws upon contemporary reports, letters and oral sources, along with TUC records.
