To paraphrase a wise observation - we will only know where we are heading if we know where we have come from - is in part the inspiration for this series of national histories. In addition to that understanding, it was the conviction of series editor, Justin Wintle, that increasing globalisation makes it ever more essential to understand our own history and the history of other nations, neighbouring or worlds away.
Each country's history is covered from the earliest recorded time right up tothe present day, with a strong emphasis on modern history and the political forces that shaped each nation. These concise but informative books pack a wealth of compellingly readable text and detailed factual information.
