Philip Collins
Blairland is the tale of a nation coming out of the shadow of the Thatcher years and in transition: from Cool Britannia to the Iraq War, from the Spice Girls to the rise of the internet, from regenerated city centres to forgotten seaside towns. Drawing on Collins's first-hand experience in Downing Street, interviews with key figures and the intimate testimony of ordinary Britons captured in Mass Observation archives this book recovers the spirit of a vanished era.
Collins takes the reader beyond Westminster to the high streets and the living rooms of Britain, where history was felt rather than made. Blairland is a portrait of an era that is now lost: Britain's last age of shared national culture and the last years of analogue.
