Bernard Shaw's second volume of writing, covering the years 1898-1918, is one of his most controversial and political works. Shaw explores his personal beliefs and motivations in his writing, as well as the political landscape of England at the turn of the century. The book is dense with political theory, and even more dense with Shaw's often acerbic wit. It is a must-read for any Bernard Shaw fan, and a great introduction to his work for those who are not familiar with it.; Vol. 2; B&W Photographs; 8vo.
