This is My Truth: Aneurin Bevan in Tribune

by Nye Davies (Editor) - £24.99  University of Wales Press (2023)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781786839671 | ISBN 10: 1786839679

Aneurin Bevan is a revered figure in Welsh and British politics, celebrated for his role as the founder of one of the country's most cherished institutions, the National Health Service. As a result, he is continuously invoked, quoted widely, and is praised for his principles.
 
However, Bevan was not only a significant politician. He was also a prolific writer, contributing extensively to the socialist magazine Tribune from its founding in 1937 until his death in 1960.
 
This is My Truth represents the first edited collection of these writings. Beginning with an introduction that charts his writing career and emphasises his legacy, the collection showcases Bevan's analysis of class conflict, capitalism, democracy, the world and democratic socialism.
 
This is My Truth provides readers with the opportunity to read Bevan in his own words and to reflect on a figure who remains a source of inspiration and controversy today.
