Opis

This book encompasses the histories of England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, and also considers the relationships between the different parts of the British Isles. Six chapters examine key themes in turn: society and population, economic life, religion, intellectual life and cultural expression, kingdoms and dominions at peace and at war, and kingship and government.

Recenzje

... this is a lively and stimulating collection. There is evidence here of the continued vigour which characterizes the study of this still puzzling period.
