'carefully researched... criticises where necessary and praises appropriately. Importantly, it draws attention to the recent changes in conditions that moulded Labour during the first seven decades of the 20th Century.'(Tribune) 'a valuable addition to the literature...a useful addition to the relatively small literature on party politics in Wales' (Political Studies)
