Description
Sidney Bunting's life offers a unique perspective on the British Empire, illustrating the complex social networks and values that were carried across the world in the name of empire. Drawing on archival material, including the Bunting family papers and records of Bunting's Oxford years, this work presents his biography.
Reviews'Drew's book...is a fascinating narrative which is highly accessible to the general reader. But its apparent simplicity is deceptive. For specialist readers it is simultaneously a substantial contribution to modern British social history, South African political history and to the history of international socialism.'- Jonathan Hyslop, Twentieth-Century British History
