The Story of Britain recounts the fascinating history of the island, its people and its empire from the moment it emerged into recorded history to the present day.
The book traces the various influences which created the British nation, and brings to life its conquerors, warriors and statesmen as well as the great figures of exploration, invention and the arts throughout the ages; also described are the lives of the ordinary men and women whose struggles and sacrifices, rebellions and triumphs, form the essence of British society.
Richly illustrated throughout, The Story of Britain is that of the island which has influenced the outside world more than any in history, written by one of the foremost historians of our age.
