pp [7] 416. ‘In this volume Schama takes us from the Stone Age to the court of Queen Elizabeth I, giving new life to familiar characters. This is history with an attitude. From Viking massacres to mass slaughter at the hands of Richard I, Schama does not gloss over the nastier sides of the story, and neither does he ignore the foul deeds of the many figures who have been counted among the heroes of British history. Behind it all, he marvels at the emergence, through civil war and dynastic struggle, of the modern British state.”
