Simon Schama explores the forces that tore Britain apart during two
centuries of dynamic change - transforming outlooks, allegiances
and boundaries. From the beginning of July 1637, battles raged on
for 200 years - both at home and abroad, on sea and on land, up and
down the length of burgeoning Britain, across Europe, America and
India. Most would be wars of faith - waged on wide-ranging grounds
of political or religious conviction. But as wars of religious
passions gave way to campaigns for profit, the British people did
come together in the imperial enterprise of 'Britannia
Incorporated'. The British Wars is a story of revolution and
reaction, inspiration and disenchantment, of progress and
catastrophe, and Schama's evocative narrative brings it vividly to
life.
