内容简介

History is always a popular subject and British history has created some of the most lively and fascinating stories there are! Britain as we know it today has been shaped by centuries of political turmoil between state and church, as well as international conflicts, making its history a fascinating insight into how modern Britain has emerged.
For this special, hardback edition of British History For Dummies, we’ve added over 100 black and white and colour photos for an even more explosive experience of British history.

Inside you’ll find rip-roaring stories of power-mad kings, executions, invasions, high treason, global empire-building and forbidden love- not bad for a nation of stiff upper lips!
Includes fascinating information in the fun For Dummies style- from the Stone Age right through to modern day Britain and everything in between!
Provides the ultimate British history experience and the hardback format with over 100 illustrations make it the perfect gift for amateur historians
