In Between the Waves, acclaimed journalist Tom McTague explores the underground history of Britain’s Brexit revolution, chronicling the battle of ideas, events and personalities that first took the country into the European Union, only to take it back out again in an explosive referendum a little over forty years later.
Drawing on unpublished sources and exclusive interviews, McTague unearths the roots of ideological conflict that raged between the great figures of history who shaped the nation as they fought for the future of Europe – Charles de Gaulle, Harold Macmillan, Jean Monnet, Enoch Powell and Margaret Thatcher.
Alongside these political giants are the lesser-known actors in Britain’s great post-war drama: a coterie of Eurosceptic student radicals, Cold Warriors, eccentric billionaires and political strategists who turned the tide of history.
Illuminating the grand historical, economic, social and diplomatic forces that coalesced to produce the Brexit earthquake of 2016, Between the Waves provides a gripping analysis of one of the defining political stories of our time.
