Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Compiled by a leading team of British historians, 'The Penguin Atlas of British and Irish History' offers a comprehensive guide to the history of these islands. The full-colour maps and integrated text take the reader on a journey from prehistoric times to the present day, with the narrative pausing to examine such topics as the spread of literacy, the development of transport, and the evolution of country houses. British cities are brought to life in artwork reconstructions that take the reader back to the Dublin of the 18th century or London in the 1850s. Scholarly yet accessible, and illustrated throughout in full-colour, it is set to become a standard introduction to British and Irish history.
