The housing crisis has become a defining part of modern life in many countries. High rents and insurmountable house prices have become normalised. But, what if it didn't have to be this way?

100 years ago, Britain was suffering from a very similar housing crisis to that of today. Slum conditions and predatory landlords were rife. Then, during the 20th century, it managed to solve that housing crisis and make safe and affordable homes a reality for all.

This is the story of how Britain (almost) solved the housing crisis, how it created another one, and how all countries can make safe and affordable housing a reality once again.
