Produktbeschreibung

Great Britain’s Place in the World, 1707-1997 is a readable and thorough account of modern British and international history, ideal for students and teachers in universities and community colleges. The book traces the interlinking of the Industrial Revolution, British military prowess, and the rise of the British Empire, alongside the degradation of global power, traced particularly from the loss of Britain’s American colonies.

Britain’s role in shaping modern history is addressed through the understanding of the impact of key conflict points, including the Napoleonic, Crimean, Afghan Zulu, and Boer Wars, the two World Wars of 1914-18 and 1939-45, and the Falklands War of the 1980s. An author’s end-note views this history in the content of the 2016 vote for Britain to leave the European Union. It is impossible to form an accurate overview of modern history without an understanding of Britain’s place in it. This book provides that, in a highly accessible form.
