'During the winter of 1928-9 a special committee under the chairmanship of Seebohm Rowntree attempted to distil the national development segments of the Liberal Party's Industrial Inquiry’s report on Britain's Industrial Future into an election programme. Keynes attended many of the meetings which ultimately produced a pamphlet We Can Conquer Unemployment, soon nicknamed the Orange Book because of the colour of its cover. Keynes became one of the leading defenders of the proposals against Conservative opposition' (Moggridge, Maynard Keynes: An Economist's Biography, p. 462).
