Description

Concise History of Great Nations. History of England. General Editors Otto Zierer and David Mountfield. 'The Isles of Britain at the Western edge of the known world, were for many centuries the goal of invaders from the mainland of Europe/ The might of Rome did in fact impose order and prosperity for a few centuries - but Rome herself was soon in decline and Great Britain was abandoned, prey to the adventuring Norsemen who, no less than Rome, left an indelible mark on Europe. It was a Norseman who conquered Great Britain in 1066. The position of Great Britain gave England an advantage she was quick to seize in the great days of exploration. Her sailors, fighting men as well as mariners, kept the Island fortress secure and also laid foundations of the most widespread Empire the world has ever seen.' The dust jacket has much wear and tape ghosting from the removal of a clear cover but the book remains tight and bright.
