For the generation which lived through World War II, Harry Pollitt was the epitome of British Communism. This bibliography tells his story from his origins in the mill-town of Droylsden, through his tumultuous years as General Secretary of the British Communist party from 1929-1956, to his ultimate disillusionment with the Stalinist project in the wake of Krushchev's revelations. The book draws not only on primary archival research, but also on interviews with Communists who knew Pollitt well.
