Britain and Ireland recounts the history of the two states - the
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the
Republic of Ireland (Eire) - and four nations - the Irish, the
Welsh, the Scottish and the English - from prehistory to the
present. Chapters are organised chronologically starting in 4000
BCE, coming through the Roman occupation, the Reformation, the
Industrial Revolution and the formation of the British Empire.
Coming up to the present day, this new edition has expanded
material on post-1800 Irish history, with particular emphasis on
the Famine, Home Rule, the Irish Civil War, partition, the
Troubles, the Good Friday Agreement and the Brexit fallout. Later
chapters also have increased emphasis on national developments
including Thatcherism, Blairism, monarchy, austerity, devolution,
the Scottish referendum and international relations with the US,
Europe and the Commonwealth, ending with the ongoing impact of
COVID-19 and climate change. Accompanied by illustrations and
information boxes, and with an increased selection of documents
with questions to challenge students of British and Irish studies,
the book presents not only the story of what happened in the
British Isles, but its interdependence with Europe and the rest of
the world.
