Product Description

Which fifty people made Britain the wreck she is? From ludicrous propagandist Alastair Campbell to the Luftwaffe's allies, the modernist architects, it's time to name the guilty. Quentin Letts sharpens his nib & stabs them where they deserve it, from TV gardener Alan Titchmarsh, the dumbed-down buffoon who put the 'h' in Aspidistra, to the perpetrators of the ' Credit Crunch'. Margaret Thatcher ruptured our national unity. The creators of East Enders trashed our brand over high tea. Thus, he argues, are the people who made our country the ugly, scheming, cheating, beer-ridden bum of the Western world. Here are the fools & knaves & vulgarians who ripped down our British glories & imposed the tawdry & the trite. In a half century we have gone from end-of-Empire to descent-into-Hell.

The website is easy to navigate with several categories, search filters by price, age and format, and many helpful reviews written by customers. Recommendations based upon your views are a nice feature. The stock selection may be slightly limited, but what The Book People do have is quality books at hugely reduced prices, providing an excellent opportunity to stock the library with classics at minimal outlay. This is an online book store, not a book club with a minimum order requirement. Book Points are awarded however which can be put towards free books. The Book People also have an informative and interesting staff-written blog where they focus on the interaction of books and people and categories such as awards, events and authors are discussed.
