  This is both a history of conservatism and a conservative interpretation of British history. Chapters include the Tory tradition up to 1900, the strange death of conservative England, freedom and prosperity, post-war conservatism and the roots of Thatcherism. The second section of this book discusses Conservative principles such as the case against equality while the final section examines Conservative policies on potentially divisive issues like Europe, the economy and the environment.
