I am looking forward to this book even though I'm not Cliff's greatest
fan. Ian Burchill writes so well, and has lived through all of the
history for a very long time.

It's "Birchall", Tom. I'm afraid your mixing him up with the much 
inferior writer, the journalist Julie Burchill.

Tony Cliff: A Marxist for his Time
by Ian Birchall

Hardback £25  9781905192793
Paperback £16.99  9781905192809

Tony Cliff came to political consciousness in the darkest period of  
the 20th century and spent his life developing revolutionary Marxism  
against Stalinism. From his early days as a revolutionary in British- 
occupied Palestine, through years of obscurity and isolation in London  
and Dublin to the high points of struggle in post-war Britain, Cliff  
worked to restore lost ideas and traditions, fan flames of resistance  
and develop our understanding of a system in constant change. Ian  
Birchall's lovingly crafted book is the culmination of years of work,  
drawing on interviews with over 100 people who knew Cliff and  
painstaking research in archives around the country. It is a majestic  
example of political biography at its best.


Available direct from Bookmarks Bookshop from 30 June 2011, and
