Abstract: This book is the first overview of Wales in the period from the Second World War to the early years of devolution. Drawing upon in-depth research, it offers an incisive account of an important phase in British history from the perspective of a nation that is too often overlooked, including topics ranging from the Aberfan disaster, the miners' strikes and the flooding of Tryweryn to the impact of consumerism, rugby and popular music.
