Summary:RATIONS AND RUSSIANS Prof. Peter Hennessy continues his quest to find what has become of Britain and the British. Delving into Britain's secret past and in the company of people who experienced the hardships of rationing at home and the start of the Cold War between the West and Communist Russia, he recaptures the era of spivs and spies, of the British A-Bomb and the birth of Britain's black community, of the Korean War and the sudden burst of colour and fun of the 1951 Festival of Britain.
