Product Description

This text covers the history of Britain from Roman times to the post-devolution era. Also covered is the history of Britain's overseas territories under British rule, and the histories of Scotland, Wales and Ireland. Succint and unpedantic, yet fully authoritative, the dictionary covers all aspects of British history: including battles such as Hastings, Pinkie and Marston Moor; political and social groups such as Whigs, Tories, Whiteboys, and Luddites; legislation such as the Corn Laws and the Reform Acts; significant events from the Synod of Whitby to the Good Friday Agreement; and biographies of men and women from Boudicca and Alfred to Gladstone and Tony Blair.
