The vast history of Britain is now at your fingertips!
Britain has a long history, from the days of Roman settlements, such as Londinium (modern-day London), to the days of Britain ruling the waves to the subsequent decline of the empire and the rise of the Commonwealth. It is hard to cover the entire history of Britain in just one book. However, this text seeks to break its history down into easily digestible sections.
This book starts us off at the point at which Britain entered into the historical record. Follow along as we unveil the invasion of Julius Caesar and the conquests of later Romans. These were the first people to write down their thoughts and feelings about Britain’s inhabitants.
The Roman Empire itself would eventually crash, but Hadrian’s Wall, as well as a multitude of Roman settlements, would remain. These were inherited by the Anglo-Saxons, who arrived from the German-speaking lands just across the English Chanel. The Anglo-Saxons created a rich history and culture but would be supplanted by the Normans in 1066.
The Tudor dynasty emerged in 1485, fundamentally changing life in Britain. The most notorious Tudor of all, King Henry VIII, broke free from Roman Catholicism and instituted the Church of England with himself at its head.
Here is just a peek at what you will learn:
• The rise of Anglo-Saxon rule and the establishment of England • William the Conqueror and how he changed the course of British history • Henry VIII and the Protestant Reformation • The many conflicts between England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland • The legacy of Wales and Welsh culture • Scotland’s role in British affairs • Britain’s involvement in World War One and World War Two • Famous myths and legends of the British Isles
