General Strike Anniversary
Revelatory history of League Against Imperialism

The League Against Imperialism (British Section): A Hidden History
by John Ellison
(Communist Party of Britain, £1.50)

IT IS a justified reproach to mainstream British historians that the significant role played by organisations like The League against Imperialism have been consistently ignored or excised from their narratives.

John Ellison begins to redress that in his valuable and fascinating short account of its British section in a pamphlet published as part of the Our History series.
