History of England

The author, an Oxford graduate writes a traditional history - kings queens, battles, treaties, Acts of Parliament. He also sets out to discover who the British people really are, with material on the ethnic background of the population. There is still room for plenty of standard history, including the glorious feats of the English sailors of the eighteenth century, the development of the astonishing British Empire, the long battles to defeat Napoleon and then Hitler, and indeed all aspects of the history of the British Isles.

Previously published as History of the British Isles to 1714 and History of the British Isles 1714-2010 - see Amazon for five-star reviews of both books.
