Słowo kluczowe
Peter Clarke brilliantly challenges the commonly held view of Britain in the twentieth century as a nation in decline. Adopting a wide perspective, he examines the political. social and economic changes that transformed Britain. He looks at how jobs and prices, food and shelter, and education and welfare, shaped society and explores such areas as architecture, sport and popular culture. Embracing a century of national experience, Hope and Glory superbly conveys the diverse aspects of three generations who lived through unparalleled change.

The Isles : a history / Norman Davies. - London : Papermac, 2000. - XLI, 1078 s., [32] s. tabl. (w tym kolor.) : il., mapy, nuty, portr. ; 24 cm.

"If ever a history book were a tract for the times, it is "The Isles: a History". "The Isles" is a masterwork, particulary memorable for its concluding survey of centrifugal forces in a late twentieth-century Britain where there are more Muslims tha Methodists. Precisely three years ago there appeared Davies's "Europe: a History". "The Isles" forms a fine companion: encyclopaedic, provocatively argued and enhanced by generous quotations from works of literature in all the Isles tongues. (Roy Porter, The Times)

The book is arranged as an alphabetical gazetter and hundreds of beautiful photographs and engravings capture the grandeur of forbidding castles, the elegance of stately homes, the fascination of ancient cities and towns and maps of particularly attractive areas of the country appear throughout the book, and there is a selection of specially drawn road maps at the back locating every place in the book. All these ingredients result in a book which is not only a pleasure to look at, but also an extremely practical guide when choosing where to go in Britain.

A History of Modern Britain / Andrew Marr. - London : Pan Books, 2008. - XXXII, 629 s., [16] k. tabl. : il. ; 20 cm.
Form of Work
Subject
Słowo kluczowe
A History of Modern Britain confronts head-on the victory of shopping over politics. It tells the story of how the great political visions of New Jerusalem or a second Elizabethan Age, rival idealisms, came to be defeated by a culture of consumerism, celebrity and self-gratification. In each decade, political leaders think they know what they are doing, but find themselves confounded. Every time, the British people turn out to be stroppier and harder to herd than predicted.

This beautifully illustrated volume tells the story of Britain and its people over two thousand years, from the coming of the Roman legions to the present day. Encompassing political, social, economic, and cultural developments throughout the British Isles, the dramatic narrative is taken up in turn by ten leading historians who offer the fruits of the best modern scholarship to the general reader in an authoritative form, illuminating their text with carefully chosen pictures and maps. A vivid, sometimes surprising picture emerges of a continuous turmoil of change in every period, and the wider social context of political and economic tension is made clear. But consensus, no less than conflict, is a part of the story: in focusing on elements of continuity down the centuries, the authors bring out that special awareness of nationality and patriotism which has been such a distinctive feature of British society. By relating both these factors in the British experience, and by exploring the many ways in which Britain has shaped and been shaped by contact with Europe and the wider world, this comprehensive work brings the reader face to face with the past, and the foundations of modern British society.

During the fifteenth century England was split in a bloody conflict between the Houses of York and Lancaster over who should claim the crown. The civil wars consumed the whole nation in a series of battles that eventually saw the Tudor dynasty take power. In A Brief History of the Wars of the Roses, Desmond Seward tells the story of this complex and dangerous period of history through the lives of five men and women who experienced the conflict first hand. In a gripping narrative the personal trials of the principal characters interweave with the major events and personalities of one of the most significant turning points in British history.
