During the first world war, his magazine John Bull sold two million copies a week. Bottomley addressed huge crowds urging them to wage a way of extermination against ordinary Germans. The first chairman of the Financial Times, the inspiration for Toad in The Wind in the Willows, Bottomley was also a major figure in post-1918 politics, urging Conservative voters to dump their leaders and try something new. This carefully-researched biography, the first new life of Bottomley for 50 years, shows how he began on the centre-left of Edwardian politics, then moved to the margins, becoming a leading figure on the Edwardian far right, and pre-empting the non-fascist far right of our own days. This book will appeal to scholars and students with interests in political history, fascism and the far right"-- |cProvided by publisher. 600 10 Bottomley, Horatio, |d1860-1933. 600 10 Bottomley, Horatio, |d1860-1933 |xPolitical and social views. 651 0 Great Britain |xPolitics and government |y1910-1936. 650 0 Capitalists and financiers |zGreat Britain |vBiography. 650 0 Journalists |zGreat Britain |vBiography. 600 17 Bottomley, Horatio, |d1860-1933. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01797609 650 7 Capitalists and financiers. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00846463 650 7 Journalists. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00984188 650 7 Political and social views. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01353986 651 7 Great Britain. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01204623 648 7 1910-1936 |2fast 655 7 Biographies. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919896 776 08 |iOnline version:Renton, David. |tHoratio Bottomley and the far right before Fascism |dAbingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2023 |z9781003306085 |w(DLC) 2022022064 830 0 Routledge studies in fascism and the far right 903 25 910 |cC0710mon |d3110-07 |gYBP |h605988 914 (OCoLC)on1315574474 |bOCoLC |cmatch |d20230407 |eprocessed |f1315574474 980 17931795 |i44.95 |j36.86 |n40031545900 982 |cf |q32101118492956
