- Focusing on Britain and her empire, this up-to-date and accessible survey provides the ideal introduction for readers coming to the subject for the first time.
Covering both the economics and politics of expansion, and the social and cultural impact of empire, the study offers a synthesis of the enormous amount of literature available on the subject. The book is arranged chronologically, beginning with the imperial expansion which took place at the end of the nineteenth century, and finishing with the Second World War, the end of which saw Britain on the brink of decolonisation. Tracing developments throughout the British Empire including in Ireland, India, and Egypt, particular points of focus are the Anglo-Boer War, and the First World War which is presented as an 'imperial war'.
