Longlisted for the Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction
A Book of the Year in The Times, TLS and Prospect
The definitive history of Britain's tumultuous relationship with Europe - as it's never been told before.
'Thought-provoking' - The Sunday Times
'Mesmerising' - LRB
'A great big entertaining sweep of a book' - The Guardian
'Excellent' - The Telegraph
'Rich and incisive' - The Economist
'Powerful, precise, morally engaged' - Rory Stewart
'The authoritative political history' - David Kynaston
'Sweeping and ambitious' - Helen Lewis
In this lively history, acclaimed writer Tom McTague chronicles the battle of ideas, events and personalities that first took the country into the Common Market in 1973, only to take it out of the European Union in an explosive referendum a little over forty years later.
A riveting story of the clashing ideals that have pulled at Britain's public imagination for more than seven decades, Between the Waves illuminates the conflicts between leading twentieth century politicians and the lesser-known actors in this great post-war drama: the Eurosceptic student radicals, Cold Warriors, eccentric billionaires and political strategists who turned the tide of history.
Ultimately, this book raises that most elemental of questions: who are we?
