Description:

This work traces the evolution of lotteries and fund-raising football pools in Britain, primarily for the period of 30 years between 1960 and 1990. This provides the background to the current proposals for a National Lottery in the UK and there is a comparison with the national lotteries of the USA and other European countries.
