Summary

The Chamberlains - father Joe and sons Austen and Neville - are probably the country's best-known political family. Synonymous with Birmingham, they achieved both local fame and fortune and, with Neville's appointment as prime minister, the highest national office. Together, they transformed late Victorian Birmingham into 'the best-governed city in the world'.
