A concise, illustrated guide to England's political, economic and cultural history from the Neolithic to the present day. There is little depth here - the centuries chase each other across the pages - but it does provide an attractive, if basic, introduction to English history through its hillforts, monuments, buildings and kings and queens as well as paintings and manuscripts.

"The best short introduction to English history we have seen."-The Good Book Guide "It would be difficult to find a better written, more succinct account of its subject than this book. Christopher Hibbert drives the story of these islands ... in crisp vivid prose that never flags."-Country Landowner "Christopher Hibbert is perhaps the most gifted popular historian we have."-Times Educational Supplement

This is the ideal introduction to English history for all readers. Concise, informative, highly readable and beautifully illustrated, it presents in a flowing narrative the broad outline of England's political, economic and cultural history from Neolithic times to the 1990's.
