Using life-story interviews and oral history archives, this book provides a radically different story about multicultural Britain. It explores the impact of South Asian migration from the 1950s onwards on the local white population and on the migrants themselves. Offering rich data lacking in existing theoretical accounts, it offers valuable insights into the nature of white ethnicity, inter-ethnic relations and the gendered nature of experiences.
