NYE : The Political Life of Aneurin Bevan Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Aneurin - Nye - Bevan was one of the pivotal Labour Party figures of the post-war era in Britain.

As Minister for Health in Attlee's government, his role in the foundation of the National Health Service, the world's largest publically-funded health service, changed the face of British society forever.

The son of a coal miner from South Wales, Bevan was a life-long champion of social justice and the rights of working people, as such becoming one of the leading proponents of Socialist thought in Britain.

In this book, acclaimed author Nicklaus Thomas-Symonds provides the first full biography of Bevan in over two decades.

Drawing on first-hand interviews as well as recently released sources, he provides a unique portrait of one of the great British statesmen of the twentieth century.
