"Wealth and Welfare analyses British economic and social history from the Great Exhibition of 1851 through to the Festival of Britain in 1951. Throughout, Daunton stresses that the story of Britain's economy in this period should not be seen simply as one of decline, but of redirection from international to domestic markets. As he makes clear, by the end of the period, Britain's economy was both modern and efficient, with the Festival of Britain in 1951 expressing the vision of a forward-looking, confident, social-democratic nation."--Jacket.
