Sobre IBD

This volume looks at Britain since 1948 - the year when the Empire Windrush brought a group of 492 hopeful Caribbean immigrants to the United Kingdom. 'Post-war Britain' may still be the most common label attached to studies in contemporary British history, but 'post-Windrush Britain' has an explanatory power which is equally useful.
