Index. Map endpapers. Description: Panoramic dust jacket art by Dave Hopkins. Well illustrated in black and white and color. Lord Briggs offers new historical perspectives on the continuity and adaptability of English society as it slowly matured, from its earliest beginnings through successive waves of conquest by the Romans, Picts, Saxons, Danes, and Normans. Central chapters are devoted to the extraordinary centuries when England expanded its interest around the world -- affecting whole continents and influencing nations not only founded in its image but born in reaction against it. Throughout, the emphasis is on human experience and its expression in English literature and art, politics, and social change.
