Uniting the Kingdom? - The Making of British History (Hardcover)

How was the United Kingdom formed? How - and to what extent - were Scotland, Ireland and Wales incorporated into a unified British polity? These were the themes of the 63rd Anglo-American Conference of Historians, 1994, on "The Formation of the United Kingdom". This is a collection of studies based on that conference, in which a team drawn from British and Irish historians explores the whole span of British/United Kingdom history. Traditional chronological frontiers are broken down as medievalists, early modernists and modernists all address such issues as expansion and contraction, political tensions and conflicting historiographies. This collection of essays forms an introduction to current thinking about the problems of "British" history and identities.
