"The decline of Great Britain in the past twenty years to a status slightly better than a fourth-rank power was accomplished, the author contends, not only because of the technical collapse of many of the nation's components, but also mostly because of an emotional impairment of Britain's vision. He neatly dissects the romanticism of British law, workmanship, ethics, alleged sagacity and excellence in a savage treatise that should be revelatory to anyone who wondered how the British got that way and whether there really will always be an Englishman." ; 8.30 X 5.60 X 1 inches; 245 pages; Box 37 .
