Hitchens identifies everything that he feels has gone wrong with Britain

since the Second World War and makes the case for the ‘many millions

who feel that they have become foreigners in their own land and wish

with each succeeding day that they could turn the clock back'. Writing

with brilliance and flair, Hitchens targets the pernicious effects of TV

culture, the corruption and decay of English language, the loss of

deference and the syrupy confessional mood brought on by the death of

Princess Diana. This new paperback edition includes a brand new

introduction taking the story up to the present day. ‘This is a cri de coeur

from an honest, intelligent and patriotic Englishman desperately

worried about the corruption of this country and the likely effects of

its lurch into the clutches of a European.' The Spectator
