This book was introduced to me by my history teacher when I was doing my A'levels, and I have to say it was a saviour! Stephen Jay Lee is great in not only giving the reader information about that period, but helps the reader debate the effectiveness of policies , governments and so on. He is constently asking questions, which he will then answer arguably, which definately helps when it comes to essay time or indeed exam time. So all of you who are doing this period for A'level history, or those interested in reading more about this period, then buy the book, it's great!
