Reviews

A truly inclusive history of the exclusions of modern Britain. Weaving together rich stories and voices from the margins, Moss exposes the stratification as well as the empowerment of the hospitality industry, bringing hotels to life with the same vivid personality as their proprietors, workers, and patrons. * Elizabeth Prevost, Professor of History, Grinnell College, USA *
