'...a working-class internationalist culture flourished in [the 1930s] and it is this culture, poised as it was between hope and apprehension, that Christine Collette captures so effectively in her carefully researched and well-illustrated monograph.' Labor History, Vol. 40, No. 3 'Collette admirably conveys the spirit of the period, when a horror of war, faith in the Bolshevik revolution, and opposition to Fascism inspired in groups of working people...a vision of a new international community...' International History Review, Vol. XXI, No. 3 'This book provides an excellent source for an important and under-researched subject.' Labour History Review, Vol. 64, No. 3 'Collette sheds light on a neglected topic, and does so with élan...a work of considerable quality... should be required reading for all those who are interested in British politics, the British left, and nationalism and internationalism in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.' Twentieth Century British History, Vol. 11
