Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Rubbish Mountains, Unburied Dead, and the Iron Lady's Shadow: The True Story of Britain's Chaotic Winter That Toppled a GovernmentIn the freezing grip of 1978-79, Britain teetered on the brink of collapse. Garbage choked the streets of London, corpses lay rotting in makeshift morgues, and hospitals ground to a halt as millions of workers-furious Ford mechanics, defiant gravediggers, and overlooked NHS cleaners-unleashed a torrent of strikes against a crumbling Labour regime's suffocating wage caps. Dubbed the Winter of Discontent by a gleeful tabloid press, this explosive era wasn't just industrial anarchy; it was the raw howl of a nation starved by inflation, betrayal, and broken promises.Dive into this riveting untold saga, where flying pickets clashed with cops, Prime Minister Jim Callaghan infamously shrugged off the crisis from a sun-soaked Caribbean summit, and a steely Margaret Thatcher seized the moment to forge her neoliberal empire. Through vivid eyewitness accounts, forgotten voices of the strikers, and razor-sharp analysis, uncover how this "glorious summer" of worker rebellion ignited the Thatcher revolution-and why its echoes still haunt today's battles over pay, power, and the soul of the working class.A must-read for fans of gritty history, labor lore, and the wild underbelly of modern Britain. Prepare to question everything you thought you knew about the strike that changed a nation forever. This item is printed on demand.
