Summary "These Are the British" by Drew Middleton is a social and political analysis written in the mid-20th century. The text aims to provide an in-depth exploration of modern Britain, particularly focusing on the changes in the British character and society since World War II. The content appears to be grounded in the author's observations and insights into various aspects of British life, such as governance, national identity, and societal challenges. At the start of the book, Middleton introduces readers to the complexities of British identity, emphasizing that the British people cannot be easily defined as a single entity, but are instead comprised of diverse nationalities and regions, each with unique characteristics. He recounts personal experiences and anecdotes to illustrate how the British landscape has evolved amid the pressures of urbanization, societal transformations over the decades, and economic challenges. The opening portion sets the stage for a comprehensive examination of what it means to be British in a rapidly changing world, hinting at a narrative that seeks to unveil underlying strengths and weaknesses within British society.
