Review
“The Dictionary becomes more valuable as it progresses. It remains a monument to scholarship and the British people.” (Professor Eric Hobsbawm)
“A fascinating picture of the richness and diversity of the British labour tradition.” (The Times)
“The Dictionary of Labour Biography continues on its course (the first volume appeared in 1972) and with each successive volume becomes more and more valuable...The Dictionary is of course far more than a collection of biographical entries. It is a huge pot-pourri of labour, socialist, radical and popular history.” (Professor J.F.C. Harrison, Labour History Review)
“The Dictionary is now well established as a central source for details of careers and bibliographic information.” (Dr H.C.G. Matthew, English Historical Review)
