| Description | This unique volume presents that history in unique form: first-hand, through the words of those who saw it and those who made it. All the great events of the last 2,000 years are here: the Norman Conquest, Magna Carta, the Peasants’ Revolt, Henry VIII’s break with Rome, the Great Fire of London, Nelson at Trafalgar, two world wars. Alongside these are the less obvious happenings which together capture the nation’s social history, such as the Black Death of 1349 and life as a chimney sweep in 1817. And of course there are the things that have shaped the nature of ‘Englishness’, like theatregoing in Elizabethan London, fox hunting in 1898, Oates’s self-sacrifice at the South Pole, the Beatles and the 1966 World Cup. | | Release Date | 2005 | | Author | John Lewis-Stempel | | Format | 490 pages
