In 2016, Britain stunned itself and the world by voting to pull out
of the European Union, leaving financial markets reeling and global
politicians and citizens in shock. But was Brexit really a
surprise, or are there clues in Britain's history that pointed to
this moment? In A History of Britain: 1945 to the Brexit,
award-winning historian Jeremy Black reexamines modern British
history, considering the social changes, economic strains, and
cultural and political upheavals that brought Britain to Brexit.
This sweeping and engaging book traces Britain's path through the
destruction left behind by World War II, Thatcherism, the threats
of the IRA, the Scottish referendum, and on to the impact of waves
of immigration from the European Union. Black overturns many
conventional interpretations of significant historical events,
provides context for current developments, and encourages the
reader to question why we think the way we do about Britain's past.
