The Oxford History of Britain

About this book

The Oxford History of Britain traces the story of Britain and its peoples from Roman times to the present day in five compact volumes. The dramatic narrative also explores the relationship between political, economic, social, and cultural aspects of history to provide a vivid and sometimessurprising picture of turmoil and change, which can be seen a pattern of continuity, and the special awareness of nationality and patriotism that has been such a distinctive feature of British society.
