"This book is the first comprehensive economic, social and political study of the London suburb of Croydon from 1900 up to the present day. Labour in the Suburbs will be of interest to the general reader as well as students of modern British history with special interests in electoral sociology, political representation and suburbanisation. It provides a template against which to measure the process of suburbanisation in the UK and internationally"-- Provided by publisher.
