History of England

This history of England to which Sir Arthur Bryant C.H. has contributed a Foreword is not merely a chronicle of kings and queens. It portrays the changing scene against which great decisions were made, and sheds light on the parts played by rebels and reformers, politicians and scientists, artists, craftsmen, and ordinary folk. From the time of primitive man’s earliest settlements through the growth of village and town, and on through the days when the English reached out vigorously from their island across the known and un-known world, the reader is taken on his own voyage of discovery right up to our own era.
