A study of particular aspects of the politics of planning a new town, this book, first published in 1980, covers events from the inception of Stevenage in 1946 up to 1978. As a case study, the focus is on two expansion schemes, intended to extend the designated area of the town, and on the public protest that the schemes engendered.
