Manchester University Press Fightback! Labour'S Traditional Right In The 1970S And 1980S by Hayter
This book tells the story of how the moderate right in the Labour Party fought back organizationally to regain control of the party by 1985, producing an NEC supportive of Neil Kinnock and ready to expel Militant, introduce One-Member-One-Vote and return the party to electability. Written by an insider, it draws on extensive interviews with all the key players and unique access to private papers and closed archives to explain how the moderates triumphed over the hard left.
