Just over a century ago, Our Island Story entranced a nation's
children by telling their history in stories. Short, simply written
chapters, packed with living characters and thrilling action - and
illustrated with vivid colour pictures - illuminate all the main
events from Britain's earliest days to the end of Victoria's reign.
And its glorious fusion of myth and legend with sober fact - Canute
and King Arthur with Cromwell and the Indian Mutiny - is as
seductive now as it ever was. 'I was given H.E. Marshall's Our
Island Story at Christmas 1936 and I've still got that copy. It was
a direct inspiration for me in my career as a historian' Antonia
Fraser 'It is written in a way that really captured my imagination
and which nurtured my interest in the history of our great nation'
David Cameron 'One of the most influential works of history of the
20th century' Times Educational Supplement
