"He is abreast of modern scholarship, and a reader with some command of English history will find Johnson's iconoclasm stimulating and challenging. His coverage of the last 200 years deserves to be labeled brilliant historical journalism." --Library Journal

This is a provocative and panoramic survey of 2,000 years of English history. Johnson tells the story of how a small nation, living in a geographical back-water, developed unique economic and political institutions, expanded its territory, and saddled upon it the frame of a modern industrial society.
