The Lure of Violence - The Right and the Edwardian Crisis in Britain, 1901–1914

This book offers a novel interpretation of conservative and right-wing responses to the Edwardian crisis in Britain (1901-1914). It stresses how the upsurge of right-wing extremism within and outside the Conservative party materialized into the formation of a myriad of organisations which conceived violence as a legitimate instrument of politics. -- .
