A Brief History of England

From the origin of the name of the British to the Viking invasion, from Magna Carta, which is considered the first constitution in history, to the Hundred Years' War, from the Tudors who gained dominance as a result of the War of Roses between the Yorks and Lancasters to Winston Churchill, from the Civil War to the "world domination" of the British Empire. A Brief History of England, which meticulously reveals the political, cultural, social and economic transformation of the country until the loss of its former colony to America, successfully fulfills its claim to tell this interesting story from the broadest perspective. Simon Jenkins places the history of England from the Saxons to the present in the big picture. It conveys all the important characters and events in detail, over a wide period of time, in a subtle style. It focuses only on England, setting the British apart from Britons and Britons, and goes into the origins of this nation, which has perhaps the most glorious past in history. "A nation is a political entity, and its birth and development is the narrative of those who wield power within it, whether monarchs, soldiers, politicians, crowds in the streets, or, more recently, the electorate. I see history as something more than a straightforward chronology, as links in a chain of causes and effects." I see that it is this chain that holds the secret of how England came to be where it is today."
