“We’re living in a sensitive age, Cuke, and I’m not altogether sure you’re fully attuned to it.” So says Irish-American politician Frank Skeffington—a cynical, corrupt 1950s mayor, and also an old-school gentleman who looks after the constituents of his New England city and enjoys their unwavering loyalty in return. But in our age of dynasties, mercurial social sensitivities, and politicians making love to the camera, Skeffington might as well be talking to us.\n\n Not quite a roman á clef of notorious Boston mayor James Michael Curley, The Last Hurrah tells the story of Skeffington’s final campaign as witnessed through the eyes of his nephew, who learns a great deal about politics as he follows his uncle to fundraisers, wakes, and into smoke-filled rooms, ultimately coming—almost against his will—to admire the man. Adapted into a 1958 film starring Spencer Tracy and directed by John Ford (and which Curley tried to keep from being made), Edwin O’Connor’s opus reveals politics as it really is, and big cities as they really were. An expansive, humorous novel offering deep insight into the Irish-American experience and the ever-changing nature of the political machine, The Last Hurrah reveals political truths still true today: what the cameras capture is just the smiling face of the sometimes sordid business of giving the people what they want.

\"I had access to what felt like a secret world. It was a subject that had been written about and dramatised but I don't think any photographers had ever tackled before. There was a change going on. Someone described it as a 'last hurrah' of the upper classes.\" - Dafydd Jones\n\n\nOxford University at the start of the eighties, rife with black ties and ballgowns. A change was on its way - best described by a newspaper as 'the Return of the Bright Young Things'.\n\n\nAt this time, Oxford University was synonymous with the wealthy, the powerful and the privileged. Many of the young people in these pictures moved on to have careers in the establishment including Boris Johnson and David Cameron. In these photographs, however, their youth is undeniable: teenagers in full suits celebrate the rise of Thatcher in England and Reagan in America, in between punting on the river, chasing romance and partying through the night.\n\n\n\"It was Thatcher's Britain, a period of celebration for those that had money\" - Dafydd Jones\n\n\nOxford: The Last Hurrah shows a world that has been written about and dramatised, yet never photographed. Affectionate and critical, it pokes affectionate fun at its subjects while celebrating English eccentricity. From the architectural marvels of the colleges to misty mornings along the river at dawn, this is Oxford at its most beautiful - and the students of the 1980s at their most raw and honest.

May 1994 saw the sudden and tragic death of John Smith, cut\ndown at the moment he appeared set to become the next Prime Minister after\nsuccessive electoral defeats for his party. His death, it is no exaggeration to\nsay, changed the entire course of history, paving the way for the accession of\nTony Blair and the advent of New Labour.\n\n\n\nSmith presided over far-reaching and at times controversial\nreform of the Labour Party and its policies, committing his party to\nconstitutional reform, devolution and greater European integration – policies\nthat we attribute to his successor today, despite Smith’s crucial role. Yet for\nsome in the party, his changes didn’t go nearly far enough.\n\n\n\nThirty years on from his death, this fascinating collection\noffers a comprehensive assessment of Smith’s leadership of the Labour Party,\nwritten by academic experts in their chosen fields and by those who knew him as\nadvisors, MPs and journalists. Taking a wide-ranging look at all aspects of\nSmith’s rule – from his legacy and popularity to his policies and priorities –\nthe book seeks to answer the crucial question of whether his leadership was a\ncontinuation of the ‘Old Labour’ attitudes that had come before him or the\nharbinger of the transformed New Labour that followed his tragically short time\nas Leader of the Opposition.
