The Many Not the Few
An Illustrated History of Britain Shaped by the People
In this episodic people's history of Britain, an old union rep, Joe, and his granddaughter, Arushi, spend a few pleasant days exploring the history of the labour movement, from the Peasants' Revolt of 1381 right up to Brexit—taking in the Levellers and the Luddites, and two centuries of trade unionism along the way. With a mix of serious research and family jokes, Joe and Arushi delve into the ideological battles and class conflict, considering what unions are for, and what their future might be.
Written by Sean Michael Wilson and drawn by Robert Brown, with a foreword by Jeremy Corbyn
