A new book has just arrived on my desk (there are some benefits to working
in a library...)
It is:-
Hassan, John (1998). A history of water in modern England and Wales.
Manchester: Manchester University Press. ISBN 0 7190 4308 5
Chapter headings are:
* The Victorian and Edwardian periods
* The inter-war and post-war years: the paralysis of special interests
* A period of optimism, 1951-73: the search for integrated management
* The Regional Water Authorities, 1973-89: the irresponsibility of
government
* Since 1989: the privatised water industry.
Also includes a good bibliography.
Definitely worth checking out.
