Originally published in 1990, and reissued in 2020 with an updated preface, this book explores how the United Kingdom has transformed into a nation of homeowners, and the profound impact it has had on the lives of individuals, the fabric of British society, and the consequences for those previously excluded. The book provides a concise historical account of the rise of owner-occupation in Britain, examining the evidence surrounding the popularity of owning versus renting. It delves into the question of whether and how homeowners accumulate wealth from their housing, discussing the available evidence on the political implications of this growth.
