| Synopsis: |
In Britannia, Graham Stewart traces 2,000 years of an island's story--from Roman province to 21st century European nation-state - through 100 historic documents. The documents selected embrace a wide range of national endeavors: politics and religion, warfare and diplomacy, economics and the law, science and invention, literature and journalism, as well as sport and popular music. These documents not only defined their own eras, but continue to resonate today. Stylishly written and generously illustrated (including numerous reproductions of the documents themselves, 24 of them in full color), Britannia belongs on the bookshelf of anyone who is curious to learn more about the historic roots of our culture, society, language, religious traditions, and political institutions. |
