Kit Kowol received his DPhil in Politics from Oxford University in 2014. He subsequently taught and researched at Teesside University, Christ Church (University of Oxford), and King's College London, where he was an Early Career Development Fellow in Modern British History. He now lives and works in Brisbane, Australia.
Kit Kowol's study of Conservatism during the war years is historical scholarship at its best: learned, balanced, fluent and provocative. He made me look at the politics of the 1940s in an entirely new light, overturning many of the things I'd taken for granted. A wonderful book; I enjoyed it enormously. * Dominic Sandbrook, historian and co-presenter of 'The Rest is History' podcast * A veritable abattoir of sacred cows, Blue Jerusalem takes everything you thought you knew about British domestic politics during the Second World War and turns it on its head. A generation of historians has marginalized or simply ignored Tory political thinking in those vital years, but Kit Kowol has discovered that it was suffused with genuine radicalism. This is revisionist history at its deeply-researched, well-written best, and of course could not be more timely. * Andrew Roberts, author of Churchill: Walking with Destiny *
